    It looks like there are a few new articles since this one came out:

    https://spacenews.com/gao-report-calls-for-more-transparency-on-sls-costs/

    https://spacepolicyonline.com/news/gao-nasa-not-transparent-about-unaffordable-sls-costs/

    Neither of those mention SpaceX at all, and the OP article just mentions them and Blue in the context of engine prices.

      There are Republicans in government too. They will always sell out to corporations over public interest.
