So, what does Musk _really_ want? He wants to be able to hire people for less money, so that he personally can keep more money, and he wants to be able to abuse his workers without fear of them going to work elsewhere. High unemployment drives down wages and makes it harder for workers to switch to better jobs. Musk _wants_ higher unemployment, for exactly these reasons. He wants everyday Americans to suffer and be locked into bad jobs paying poor wages.
