I am reminded again how in 1935, the US Congress passed a tax law that created a new top tax bracket of nearly 80%.
That tax bracket contained exactly one person, John D. Rockefeller, and was designed to stop him from causing so much trouble.
In case anyone needs the precedent.

It also remains way past time to make any US government contracts with Elon Musk's companies contingent on his not having any further role with them. Make the majority shareholders in SpaceX choose between Musk and their money.
