Think of it this way, Biden just announced 300 billions dollars for wealthy graduates in debt relief. That could have payed for a moon base. But people don't want it, they want free money instead. Wasted money on useless educations could cut the cost of education in half. It's our choice, moon or wasted money. If this was a game, you only have so much productivity, and you have to allocate it to building a base on the Moon or Mars, or not.
That would have paid to double NASA's funding for the next 10 years. Nope.
That's why the main thing Elon is doing is trying to cut costs. Cheap travel to the moon is the goal of SpaceX.
