Looking at the above chart how long before the admin and certain congress critters start screaming monopoly particularly if BE-4s go boom?
Many in the currently administration have it out for Elon. In case you hadn't noticed

I've already seen articles in MSM and Space media calling SpaceX a monoploy.  The groundwork has been laid.  The Catch22 for the gov and bankers is that they need SpaceX to launch their stuff right now.  Once there are actual other choices and the "issue" is just that SpaceX is an order of magnitude cheaper, I expect we'll see more pushes for price controls or subsidizing of SpaceX competitors to ensure "fairness".
