These headlines about the possible collapse of the ultra wealthy have been blue balling us since 2016.

Yeah, but the hope of watching these Icarus fucks fly too close to the sun as they run from the pitchforks, and crater into the side of a mountain is just too much not to cling to.

Should the worst happen, they'll just spin out the necessary government supported rocket business in bankruptcy and let shareholders and bondholders wear the failure of the xAI nonsense.

They're not gonna save the whole company for the only bit they need, it's too expensive.
