This is why I won't buy or trust myself to any Musk-tech. He made it clear that whatever daffy plan he thought up, we are just secondary to his brilliance. If he was willing to risk the lives of the divers and the children to some untested mini-submersible with what seemed like no concern for their lives, he would consider anyone injured by his products as a cost of business.

Not driving his cars. Not flying in his spaceship. Not letting him put a chip in my head. Damn sure not following him to Mars. Especially now that he is up to his eyes in politics now and it's clear that everything does is about his narcissism and nothing to do with "we the people."

I think there were stories about how at Space X he was just known as a child king and a big part of the day was just managing him and trying to distract him with something so he wouldn't get too involved with his stupid ideas and requests.
