Absolutely correct! That he spilled the beans to Isaacson is itself a sign that he figures he's so important no one can or will touch him. It seems to me the push to privatize government as a way to "save money" has always been long on wishful thinking and flawed where necessary intelligence and critical thinking is concerned. Muck (intentional spelling) and those like him (Peter Thiel, Leonard Leo, etc al) represent a clear and present danger to democracy and democratic norms. As he said he wanted people to use Starlink for streaming movies and relaxing. He jumped in to help at first then suddenly got scared and had the engineers turn off the signal which aborted the attempt on the Russian ships. The truth is, mercurial may be another name for rich fascist.
