Which is customized for every patient, so it currently costs $500,000 and isn't FDA approved for wide use, AND it is only available inside the US in a limited number of facilities.
Still, it's very promising, and if it holds up, it'll eventually be more widespread. At the end of the article it says they're working on a more generalized approach that could lower the cost and increase availability.
You're putting words in my mouth and exaggerating my statements. Just look at how the NASA manned space programs have run since the start, AND how they are currently run. Congress puts a lot of stipulations on how they are manufactured. NASA has a big problem with congressional interference.
Their science/unmanned programs are different, because congress is more hands off. Those are running just fine. The problem is that SpaceX is a huge cost and has a lot of manufacturing and jobs associated with it. That invites congressional interference.
Not only that, but they also have a large commercial presence already with the Starlink. The government doesn't typically run things like that, so they'll probably sell of the Starlink portion of the company.
It's not a conspiracy, it's not libertarian-ism, it's just how NASA is run. Once the budgets get into the billions, congress can't keep their hands off it.
Yes, there are certainly problems with the Commercial Crew program right now, just look at how Starliner is run. We probably won't get a capsule from Boeing, because they don't have an incentive to finish, due to the fact that it's not a cost+ program like the SLS is. SLS is also constrained by politics, they are required to use so many Shuttle parts, just to keep those sub-contractors happy.
Problem is that if SpaceX becomes part of NASA, then it'll be like the space shuttle. It'll need parts made by every small company that contributed to some random representative in every state, so we'll end up with 300+ contractors all building critical components.
That is such a huge conspiracy that's going around in every neighborhood.
Every time I hear it I think, there's no way the health department is letting kids shit out in the open in public in the back of a classroom. Even IF you can get around the whole "kids using the bathroom in public in front of teachers" thing that would 100% get someone put on an offender list.
