All they have to do is get the Starship flying and landing, perfect orbital refueling, solve the cosmic radiation problem, produce fuel, food, and water on Mars, and they should be good to go.<br /><br />In contrast, we have to convince the DC area to spend $BILLIONS$ for a Metro line to nowhere (which is what they consider the Mason district to be). This same metro area can't build a bridge between their most affluent counties.<br /><br />By comparison, SpaceX has it easy.
