Isn’t a lot of their work federal government based? I’m assuming that would put restrictions on hiring foreigners

Why yes it would.

There are no more rules for them.

Not just that but rockets are considered sensitive National security technology so even if the work wasn’t for the government there are restrictions on who you can hire.

You mean you can't just hire a diverse bunch of chronic smoking goons? That's racist.

It would if it's a position that requires a security clearance, which I'm sure the vast majority of positions in SpaceX working with NASA would require.

Discriminate against "non-US citizens?" You mean by giving jobs to actual Americans instead of foreigners?? WTF ...

What a weird statement right? I sure hope they discriminate the hell out of non-US people by giving jobs to americans first. A better investigation might be why the DOJ is attacking business opportunities of US citizens who they are supposed to be serving the interests of. Seems pretty treasonous - maybe they can explain why they did this to people who lost their jobs.

100% because he wouldn't hire CCP nationals, and Joe won't have that.

It's a tough match-up between Jeff Bezos, George Soros, and Bill Gates, but I've been tagging Bezos as the most dangerous, liberty averse Human Being in history for quite a few years now.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if he put Musk in his cross-hairs. Of course, what that would really equate to is scum sucking dog-eat-dog, 'cause Musk is no friend of WeThePeople. Look at how many tax payers he has knowingly, actively screwed in his accumulation of tax dollars from state after state of his short and long con game called* I'm gonna' put my business capital to work in your state to build your coffers*, only to pull anchor and move on to the next state.

Just one more in a long line of scum bags ripping off WeThePeople.

Great points. I would argue Bezos and Gates are equally dangerous and Gates is more likely to do something horrible to us because he doesn't see us as customers anymore. So I give the nod to him, but it's pretty fucking close.

On Musk, I used to see it like you do, but now I think he was smart to take the money and I'm glad he did it because he's the only thing standing between Bezos achieving total domination of near Earth space. If you want to understand Musk better you really need to read the Culture series by Ian M. Banks. Especially the Special Circumstances parts, which is pretty much all of it.

Hi Alfredbester,

I see your point. But, Musk is the text book definition of an equal opportunity snake. One day he's helping you by eating the rodents, the next he's biting your leg.

Do you honestly think he will put WeThePeople first if he's given enough tax payer money to become king of the outer stratosphere? NOT!!!

Yes. I believe he wants us to succeed as a species and reach the stars more than he desires personal power.

Work in space industry, can confirm, public trust and clearance positions, essentially the intern and up, are required to be US citizens.

There’s federal law which says you have to hire non-citizens?

Of course he discriminates when it comes to hiring employees. Otherwise he wouldn't be successful.

China doesn't want to be left behind in the next space race. That's why they care so much about spying on SpaceX.

1
GabeC1997 1 point ago +1 / -0

Oh no, how could SpaceX, the world's current leader in space technologies, refuse to hire obvious spies?! What bigots!

Somebody's pissed that their Chinese spy didn't make it through the hiring process.

Sildaran 1 point ago +1 / -0

Wait they are investigating a US company because its not hiring enough people who do not have the right to work in the US? Or is this they are not hiring enough H1B1 visa types? Even then makes no sense.

The law doesn't say anything about hiring enough illegal aliens or Work Visas.

zooty 1 point ago +1 / -0

There are other visa types too. There's the green card lottery and spousal visas for example and also ones for highly qualified people and entertainers/athletes. I'd imagine the CCP is sending a lot of people in those ways.

Well, the US government discriminates against non-U.S. citizens in hiring and contracting, so . . .

SpaceX has contracts with the federal government, and they can hire only US citizen or GC holders for those jobs.
