The entertainment value will be epic."

Or, as Musk himself said about the leaderboard

This will be both extremely tragic and extremely entertaining,

The world is suffering slow strangulation by overregulation. Every year, the noose tightens a little more. We finally have a mandate to delete the mountain of choking regulations that do not serve the greater good,

There's a significant opportunity to make the government more capable of delivering for Americans, and ironically it will actually cost less not more,

The US Department of Agriculture runs a foreign language school. I took a Chinese class there. Why does the department of agriculture need to teach Chinese? We have community colleges for that right?"
