Senator Elizabeth Warren (D) has called for an investigation into Elon Musk and his company, SpaceX, Bloomberg reported on Sept. 12. The U.S. Congress should investigate "whether we have adequate tools to make sure foreign policy is conducted by the government and not by one billionaire," Warren said on Sept. 11 in Washington, D.C.
While I would love seeing it nationalized for the pure schadenfreude, there are other more likely punishments, like refusing further government contracts until a certain someone is removed from day to day decisions. SpaceX could easily stay private as long as Musk loses the ability to play Risk with geopolitics. If the US government is paying most of the bills, they could mandate such a move.
