Hopefully it's obvious at this point: Musk and friends not there to do anything but enrich themselves, and destroy.

Musk usually elevates technical and capable people, and gives them more power, not less.

I suspect 18F would have been adopted by USDS, if it had been less overtly partisan in its hiring practices.

Care to provide an example? I was casually looking at applying, but I am on the conservative side as easily searchable on Google by voter registrations

The only person Musk ‘elevates’ is himself.

People with that kind of wealth have transcended humanity. Not towards greatness but towards total indifference.
