Starship isn't being paid for by the government; it's all SpaceX & investment.

SpaceX
The tech billionaire's aerospace company has benefited from nearly $19.8 billion in federal contracts since 2008.
Fiscal year 2024 was the largest on record for SpaceX, aided by at least $3.8 billion in U.S. government contracts.

None of those were Starship. Some money has been put aside for Starship (specifically HLS), but SpaceX doesn't get it until they meet the milestones attached.
