Yes, I would say that because he's not going to turn Twitter profitable by running off advertisers, alienating users and rolling back policies designed to keep the company free of legal and PR issues, which is pretty much all he's done to date.

Frankly, it's very debatable whether Twitter can be profitable, but Musk seems determined to dig a deeper hole.

With so many companies cutting jobs and Fed rates continuing to rise, I don't see how the economy will not slow down or even contract. Then we'll be even more screwed because overall prices on daily goods and services the average household needs will remain high for the most part and taxes (especially property taxes) aren't going down anytime.

I don't need to start my own company to demand that I get paid for my time. That applies to every job, ever. I also don't need to start my own company to negotiate the terms of my labor and working conditions. This is especially true for exempt salaried positions for high skilled professionals. They are the subject matter experts, not the executives. If you don't believe it then let's switch to hourly pay with time and a half overtime. Then we'll talk.
