Comment on At SpaceX, worker injuries soar in Elon Musk's rush to Mars

Comments

I've always thought making people work long hours, repeatedly, would have a negative impact on their health. These injuries are far worse than I expected, but then I was only thinking about a desk job.

I love what SpaceX and Tesla are doing, but it's difficult to be an Elon fan when people are being seriously hurt because of bad policies.

I'm a fan of what SpaceX and Tesla are trying to achieve in a technical context (cheaper space flight and electrification of transport). Elon is obviously highly instrumental in this happening and should be recognized as such.

But his conduct otherwise has not been respectable and that too should be recognized.

People tend to all all or nothing but the answer is usually somewhere in between.
