    I am sure a guy that helps advance EV industry and develops spaceX knows a thing or two on running a company. From my understanding, since he bought Twitter at such high price, he had to cut cost before he was swimming in negative cash flow.

      He didn’t design any EV or rockets. On top of that the best mode of transportation in the future is train rail. He completely stopped the California Hyperloop and now is digging holes underground with le epic meme company name.

        Little correction here, Musk proposed the pie in the sky Hyperloop idea to stop the California High Speed Rail from being built.

        If you are ever in LA, you should drive by the sad looking Hyperloop prototype next to SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne (don’t get out of the car, not a safe area) and you will immediately see how ridiculous the entire Hyperloop idea is.

      “since he bought Twitter at such a high price”

      You mean at an absolutely stupid price?

      The guy is not a genius in any way at all. Maybe research how he actually got where he is. It sure as hell wasn’t because he’s some kind of revolutionary person.
