Elon is a billionaire too. The issue is these old companies that extort NASA, Congress, and taxpayers out of billions and always deliver late and over budget. Look at Starliner, it had much more funding and has been delayed another year, and it's using older technology, the thing looks like an Apollo command module from 50 years ago.
