I don't really believe in the financial aspects of reusable rockets, but I tend to believe in the financial aspects if an air force gives you free launch sites then a US state gives you public land to use as you wish without any supervision. Using taxes to pay for something and call it cheap, as shameful with spaceX as it is for EU healthcare (except in one case it benefits one company, in the other whole nations).

I'm not really sure I understand what you're arguing here. That reusable rockets are easy to build as long as the government gives one some land to use? If that were true we would have had reusable rockets many decades ago.
