The government is paying half. And that only for the specialized Moon Lander version. And it requires SpaceX to do a whole lot of things to.
Government pay nothing for the infrastructure SpaceX developed, for the Raptor engine they have developed over the last decade and so on.
This 80% number is complete nonsense.
If you want to make grand statements, at least do a minimal amount of research.
Edit: And in case you are talking about Falcon 9 the claim is even more wrong.
