Musk is particularly skilled in collecting money from the government for his companies, Jeb Barnes, a University of Southern California professor, said. Now he's in a political position where he could bolster that strategy.

Elon Musk's companies, including Tesla, SpaceX, and X.AI, have been strategically leveraging government subsidies and tax incentives to fuel their growth and innovation, according to a recent analysis by Fortune.

However, supporters contend that these subsidies are crucial for advancing cutting-edge technologies and driving economic growth in key sectors.
