I just appreciate what both are doing.

Blue Origin is probably 5+ years away from being to a point that they could reasonably be competing with SpaceX, but the advantage that they have is an enormous pile of money coming in every year through Bezos. Musk is super rich, no doubt, but he has to make his projects generate revenue. Bezos barely has a reason to care.
I wouldn't say Bezos is at Musk's level of out-of-the box thinking or altruism, but he's got more money to throw at everything, which can make a difference.
