The fact that this is your conclusion made about Cuban offering this as a gesture to how talented and critical these people are, says more about you than Cuban

To assume only altruistic intentions from Cuban, yes I would say it's a very good thing to support the people doing actually great work in the government.

My point is just that Cuban is supporting the problem that Musk is creating, albeit without putting himself entirely in a position where he could receive the ire of the public.

And just to reiterate, 18f has done great work, and if this is the only way for them to continue for the time being I guess so be it. I just don't agree with the chain of events that led here.
