The sad truth is that nobody that can do anything about it gives a shit. Musk doesn't give a shit. The US government doesn't give a shit. The shareholders don't give a shit. There's too much money for them to give a shit.

Stop working for this asshat. And stop giving free publicity.

Well we only have ourselves to blame. SpaceX shouldn't exist. It should have never have been able to get into market being overwhelmed by very successful companies and NASA. The GOP cut space funding and fucked around with what little that was left for half a century. Meanwhile Boeing decided that lobby was a better investment than engineering.

They have done impressive stuff but it was all impressive stuff that should have happened multiple decades ago.

The shareholders?

Shareholders / investors / stock holders... you get the idea. People that have invested money in the company. They don't give a shit and just want returns.
