So you’re saying the money trail is complicated. That’s a given.


Are you retarded? Subcontracts are reported publicly and tracked, just like prime contracts. It’s literally where I got the numbers from.

It’s his value to the gov

I’m guessing your value to the gov is a little less

NASAs budget is $23billion a year.

Considering their ability (or lack there of) to Elon, we are getting him at a steal.

You mean his company that sends satellites and rockets into orbit gets big contracts from the government now that NASA is obsolete? Who'd have thunk it

What a waste of 8 million dollars per day.
We could add another 538 congressmembers and a Chelsea Clinton to the books for only 4 times the cost; And then we could hold a comittee meeting to really root out all this ridiculous waste and fraud.

Plus, we would have the added benefit of them grandstanding on Fox or CNN at 11 pm after they’ve spent their day being briefed by their 19,000 staffers on exactly which words they should use in which order; dreamt up by a rogue bunch of 19 year old female geeks working for internews at the tune of 453 million per year on USAID’s balance sheet.

And you can sure fricking bet they wont bring their dumbass Crotch Goblins around while pounding their chest and saying all the things that make you feel fricking comfortable.

That’s a large enough contract to require an audit.


Is it? Why?

No. He’s not sure. He actually knows almost nothing about the thread he started.

His curiosity stops where his bias begins

Yeah, better to watch those rockets. It’s not as if I want money any spent on rainbow mice either. We’re looking at wasted govt spending now. The point is the amount of spending toward the person who has the Oval Office press conferences with his kid.

Your people care about wasteful spending so much, y’all are begging federal judges to prevent audits

If someone who meets all of those criteria are making $8M/day, then so be it.

He is not alleging “making $8 million/day”; he is alleging revenue of $8 million/day. That revenue is mostly absorbed by the costs of delivering the products or services being contracted. The remainder is profit, which is what we usually mean by “making” money.
