He owns it though, he doesn't have to respond to shareholders anymore it is his company, so he can just shut it down if he wishes.

He took some debt to purchase it, but in case of debt, when coolant goes down lenders don't care if it was his fault or not.

I think some people still have hangups, because how somebody who created Tesla and SpaceX could be this bad. The thing is that those companies are run by different people he is just their face.
