Maybe but they've got me interested in how this actually compares to nasa from a financial perspective.

The difference isn't whether or not NASA could do this. The difference is that NASA's been funded by an anti-intellectual plutocracy who'd prefer to get rich bombing peasants in the middle east than do anything which would actually benefit humanity.

SpaceX engineers were people inspired by NASA, and would've likely ended up at NASA if the 4 year election cycle didn't sabotage most projects.
