We just bought his hype

That hype was useful when for cussed on a technology he is helping develop. We should never have listened outside that

helping to develop

This, my friend, is the hype. Musk has never helped to develop anything. He's not an engineer or a scientist. He's a rich asshole who buys his way into tech projects, all of which were either doing fine without him (Tesla, PayPal) , fail utterly (Hyperloop), or suck up resources that could almost certainly be applied more effectively by the government itself if they weren't being funneled into a for-profit operation (SpaceX).
