Elon Musk is getting out of control. Here is how to to rein him in | Robert Reich

Not the point, but it's so weird to me that this is the dad of Sam Reich from Dropout

1 & 2: boycott Tesla and X. I think most people that would want to do this have already done so. It's not like he suddenly became a horrible person.

3 & 4: prosecute him. He's literally the richest person on the planet, so... Good luck.

5: break NASA contracts with SpaceX. Sadly, NASA can't afford to do that.

6: don't elect Trump. Yeah... OK, we're working on that?

What a stupid article. Basically three suggestions stretched into six that amounts to "people should do something."

As though saying "he should be arrested" and "he should have less money" is going to suddenly stop his political influence. Reich should be a Lemmy user for all the impotent outrage and unrealizable "ways to rein him in" he expresses.

Just to be clear, luring him into a basement and then bricking him into a small chamber in the wall is not a valid option, right? I just want to be sure we're all on the same page.
