Muskman was a master at financial engineering that maximized the benefit from the carbon tax credit program, which essentially was the government subsidizing Tesla. Congress let it happen by allowing businesses to sell their unused carbon tax credits instead of only offsetting taxes on profits.
Tesla made money mainly by selling government issued carbon credits to other car companies. Calling people on government assistance government parasites is a bit... well, hypocritical, IMHO. Musk took advantage of the tax benefit, and gamed the system since Tesla only produced electric cars that had no carbon emissions, and earned carbon tax credits which Tesla could not use, but could sell.
The article below shows that Muskman knows exactly that SpaceX is likely to follow the Tesla path using government assistance to reap profits for a private business.
