A Fool And His Money

 I remember telling my students back in 2021 that crypto was a scam and Elon Musk was not actually that smart. I think the crypto prediction proved pretty ironclad. Now, it looks like Musk might finally get some comeuppance. Either his bankers are going to repossess Twitter (and not a moment too soon, he's trashed the place) or the SEC is going to put him through some things.

Maybe that's why he's lurched to the right, despite owning a business that requires the goodwill of left of center customers. If he's a right wing troll, when the SEC comes for him he can yell "witch-hunt!" 

So hopefully his bankers repo Twitter and give it to people who know what the fuck they are doing. For all its many faults it's not been replicated.
