@SpaceX or @Tesla?


SpaceX bids on many Gov't projects, but that isn't a bailout like GM received.
What Gov't handouts is Tesla getting? Their customers don't receive EV rebates like GM and other, less successful, EV manufactures receive.

Musk has a pretty tenuous relationship with the US GOVT, which could be why his firm doesn't receive the same things that companies like GM do.
