That's not capitalism. That's corporatism.

Technically, the combination of government and corporate power is fascism.
It would be borderline for him to make changes to NASA that benefit him if they are improvements. It would also be par for the course for government officials. It will look bad no matter what he does with NASA. If he shuts them down, he's killing the competition. If he makes changes that benefit him, it's corruption. The smart thing to do is give it to another department to deal with, but I doubt Elon cares if he looks bad.
Fascists don't gaf.
This is true, however it would involve the military, or some sort of government coercion. Elon as far as I know is just in it for the free cuck bucks.
I worry a lot of people including you underestimate the potential of evil.
Mussolini: "Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power."
