We should sell to SpaceX for cheap since NASA can't do anything right!

Did not they do this with space lunch too lol

Gut it from the inside, then provide tech and talent to a corpo who then charges you for the services you knew how to do in house...

But if NASA 'can’t do anything right,' how come SpaceX and other private companies like stylo rely so heavily on former NASA engineers, research, and infrastructure to even operate?
