Let me get this straight?

Pet Hegseth, Kristy Noem, Steven Miller, Marco Rubio, and kash Patel make $200,000 a year. Even during a government shutdown. And are now getting free military public housing when there isn't enough housing for members of the real military?

Yes but if we live on government assistance we're leeches.

@SinlessOnslaught Meanwhile Elon gets 38 million a day to blow up rockets.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Elon is entitled to blow up every cent he makes. The point of this post is that the leeches in the US Administration are getting millions a day to blow up our country.

@sree251 He doesn't earn anything. And he is given 30 million a day by the government to do whatever he wants. That is the definition of a leech.

Being a billionaire doesn't magically make him special.

I want to take you seriously. How is Elon getting this 30 million a day by the US Government. Can you cite the source of your info?

@sree251 That is what all his subsidies and other free money he is getting from the government for Space X and other contracts. And none of them are conditional on producing actual results.

Your ignorance is not my issue.

I am ignorant of what is in those contracts. When I was working in a US corporation, all company contracts are classified as sensitive business information and not meant for general distribution even within management. SpaceX is not a run-of-th-mill American company. So, who fed you the information?

@sree251 Dude. This is public information. You have to go out of your way to not know this information. This is Space X not Skunkworks.

This is not the B 21 Raider here. And no, not all contracts are classified. Certainly not the amount paid out. If it were government oversight would be literally impossible.

And as for the contracts not being contingent on results that is self explanatory. Repeated failures of years and there has never been any discussion about pulling funding.

Hell even defense contractors have to generate results or get their funding pulled.

The only time Musk's funding was threatened was over petty squabbling with Trump over personal bullshit. Never about results.

You are spouting a lot of bs. It's ok. This is not a place for serious conversation.

@sree251 It is not BS. Your willful ignorance is a you problem.

You clearly are just a Musk fanboy and have no interest in a real conversation.
