Musk usually elevates technical and capable people, and gives them more power, not less.

I suspect 18F would have been adopted by USDS, if it had been less overtly partisan in its hiring practices.

The only person Musk ‘elevates’ is himself.

People with that kind of wealth have transcended humanity. Not towards greatness but towards total indifference.
