Incredibly shortsighted take. Musk is in it to dismantle the economy and buy up the scraps. He’s not giving up on the transfer of wealth

Vulture Capitalism 101: run down the value of the asset before selling it off for parts. See also the NHS.

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Musk is only just getting started.
He's into a whole lot more manipulating, breaking, and gouging across governments (USA, UK, Europe...)

Well, Musk does where a tee shirt with the saying.
"Occupy Mars" on it.
I hope he's planning to head up there real soon

Met a lot of these types in the business world. They get out before the crap hits the fan and get a promotion to someplace else..then rinse and repeat.
