Now that we've had a taste of Elon Musk's management style, I believe it is becoming clear to even the most fervent MAGA's that Musk views all mere employees - especially government employees - as essentially worthless and in many cases unnecessary cogs in a machine he neither understands nor appreciates.
His disdain and, I believe actual contempt for workers is obvious. In Musk's world, these people are merely pieces of a machine. Some are unnecessary. Many are duplicative. And almost all are essentially lazy and unproductive. The solution: Fire "x" percent outright. Leave the others wondering when or if the axe will drop on them. And then rinse and repeat. This has been his "management strategy" at Tesla and is the strategy he's undertaking with our government agencies, all with the tacit blessing of the Orange Doofus who is presently serving as Musk's Vice President.
Musk's hyper-energetic ego will force him to double down on the many abuses already noted. Eventually Donald will tire of the Trusk presidency and throw Musk under the bus. But by that time, much of the government will be in ashes. Elon will take his billions of marbles and simply go home or to any number of countries that covet his money. We, however are left here to try and pick up whatever pieces are even left to pick up. We are well and truly screwed.
