- He is gonna leech tax money for a product that he will never deliver.
  
  It'll be done by next year
  
  Or a product that he will have built using tax money, and that he will instead use to hold the world ransom.
- Don't worry, he's also got the help of *checks notes... Peter Thiel and Palmer Luckey!
  Don't people feel good for supporting the original Oculus Rift now? I'm so glad the godfather of modern VR is an absolute pile of shit and always was!
  
  Guiding drones to a target is the killer app for VR headsets
No. that would be taxpayer dollars. taxpayers will pay for this fraud.
Wannabe feudal lords come for military power, as they always have.
Omg its just like Moonraker
So the pentagon is gonna bend over for the sunshine train too? You guys are really fucked if that happens and so are all of us.

  Shedletsky needs to shut the fuck up. All that bitch did was work on Roblox. Yeah, you really built the modern world you fucking chump.
Wrong.
Musk plans to take a bunch of money and not deliver.
One of the sources familiar with the talks described them as “a departure from the usual acquisition process. There’s an attitude that the national security and defense community has to be sensitive and deferential to Elon Musk because of his role in the government.”
Following in the hallowed (retch) footsteps of Dick Cheney and Halliburton's no-bid contracts to "rebuild" Iraq.

Never considered the pros of Kessler syndrome. Also I guess alien defense?.. speed bumps.
This is the setup to a Bond movie
