Wir wissen nicht, ob es einen Quid Pro Quo gab, aber es sieht sicherlich so aus, als hätte es einen gewesen. Also hat niemand versucht, das zu vermeiden. Elon Musks Konflikte von Interesse. Ich meine, Musk ist verantwortlich für die Führung von Leuten an Regierungsagenturen, die verantwortlich für die Regulierung seiner Unternehmen waren.

And he has a presence also in government agencies that are able to subsidize his companies or buy things from his companies, you know, whether it's Starlink or whether it's the State Department, I think, is buying armored Teslas. That's a grotesque conflict of interest of a kind that I also can't think of a contemporary precedent.

Again, rich people, influential, they get laws passed, they lobby for things and so on. But to actually have the owner of major companies that have major interests, have been heavily subsidized by the US government, personally going into government agencies and firing people and making policy there, I can't think of anything like that.

Oligarchie of a kind you see in autocratic states. I mean, that's Russian-style oligarchy. Once again, it is a profound challenge to the rule of law, to the assumption that democracy needs transparency and accountability, and that people who are acting in the public interest should be acting in the interest of Americans. und nicht in ihren persönlichen finanziellen Interessen.

Ich meine, wenn Musk Leute auf die Regulatory Bodies der Verkehrssicherheit gefeuert hat, ist das, weil es gut für die Amerikaner ist oder weil es gut für Tesla ist? Und wenn es nur für Tesla gut ist, dann ist das eine Katastrophe für die Amerikaner.

And sooner or later there will be repercussions and we will be less safe and we will be more badly regulated and our taxpayers' money will be wasted on Musk's companies. You know, I feel that partly because some of this stuff sounds complicated.
