   Well, who'd want to bet against SpaceX getting the job done?   
      
   NASA has seen how easily its money can disappear into a black hole. SLS   
   has been nothing but a money-pit, and Starliner still hasn't carried an   
   Astronaut.   
      
   This might encourage other companies to be more focussed on building   
   working space hardware, and less on an a drip-feed of NASA cash.
