Musk is a perfect demonstration of why no single person should control this much infrastructure, influence and public money. Democracy isn’t supposed to depend on whether one billionaire wakes up feeling generous, vindictive or bored. The answer isn’t finding a nicer billionaire. It’s making sure none of them can wield this kind of power.

Financial obesity is neurotoxic, an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal. Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but trillionaires should be forced to transition into billionaires, and billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
