Elon Musk's SpaceX is rapidly expanding its operations in rural Texas, constructing launch facilities, office buildings, and a shopping center. However, a Reuters review of Texas property records reveals that SpaceX and its contractors are often slow to pay builders and suppliers. This delay in payments has led to more than two dozen construction businesses filing liens against SpaceX. Former Texas Secretary of State Carlos Cascos described SpaceX as 'the big bully on the playground,' highlighting the company's reluctance to settle its debts promptly. The resulting finger-pointing among contractors has caused a reluctance to work on SpaceX-related projects again.
