I cannot find any comments by Sanders about SpaceX, just him supporting NASA, but wanting to take care of Earth needs first.

That does not sound like supporting NASA.

"We will absolutely generously fund NASA--as soon as we have welfare for all, medicare for all, ended global warming..."

I found this:

The immense taxes that the Green New Deal and Medicare for all would need would fall heaviest on firms such as SpaceX and Blue Origin. Little money would be left over to fund private space exploration.

Why? Aren't they still in the prototype stage? I would be all for taxing Elio heavily, but why?
