I think the issue is that SpaceX has government contracts. NASA and the military are probably more likely to be authoritarian about drug use among their contractors. He got in some hot water for smoking a joint in a Joe Rogan episode a few years ago too.
I think it’s ridiculous of course. Let people do drugs. If he becomes incompetent then oust him for incompetence. Don’t bring drug dogs in, especially since they’re really only going to find low-level employees self-medicating while the execs weasel around it.
That’s it exactly, SpaceX isn’t using Elmo’s bank account to fuck around, it’s using ours.
It’s using both
The drug-use aspect is irrelevant here. I don’t care if govt contractors are using drugs, as long as their work is effective. And the Falcon 9 rockets are unmatched. And the Starship prototypes are groundbreaking.
I could make some moral complaints about Musk as a military contractor and grifter, but specifically regarding SpaceX and drug use… I 100% support it. I mean, he should get a grip, but drug use is not where I want the govt to focus.
