Why is it costs less when a system is privatized?

Like in world war 2, weapons are manufactured by the government but now there are weapons companies doing it for the government.

In ww2 times weapons were also made by private companies, nothing new there.

Private companies can be more 'efficient' because they parasite on community investments. SpaceX would be nothing if they could not drain NASA from promising staff educated, trained and experienced there on taxpayers' money.
