Elon Musk fired back at an X user who said the government 'throws money at him'
"The funny part about that clown's analysis is that even if every bit of bullshit he says is true, it still amounts to less than 1% of the value of Tesla and SpaceX 🤣🤣"
"Where did the other 99% come from?"
"True. I love NASA, but they will only be ~5% of SpaceX revenue this year."
"Vast majority of SpaceX revenue is the commercial Starlink system."
Tesla and SpaceX have received upward of $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies, and tax credits since 2003. That government support has been characterized as representing less than 1% of the combined value of the two companies. Tesla's market capitalization is around $1.5 trillion, and SpaceX is reportedly planning an IPO at a similar valuation. NASA-related work is expected to account for about 5% of SpaceX revenue this year, while the commercial Starlink system supplies the vast majority of SpaceX revenue. Tesla faces scrutiny over self-driving and humanoid-robot plans amid slowing auto growth, and SpaceX is pursuing acquisition of xAI.
