.hiltzikm writes: 'The most pressing question swirling around Musk’s behavior is: Why?'
The sad and tragic phenomenon of individuals goading police officers into shooting them is sufficiently common to have earned a nickname: “Suicide by cop.”One wonders if something similar is driving Elon Musk’s deliberate taunting of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which has the authority to seek his removal from the management of Tesla.
The September settlement covered more than merely the requirement that Tesla establish a preapproval process for any Musk tweets that might carry material information about the company. Musk and Tesla each were fined $20 million. Musk was forced to relinquish his post as chairman, though he was allowed to remain as CEO. The company was required to add two new outside directors, part of a seemingly endless effort to dilute the influence of Musk sycophants on its board.
