Musk is no different from your average "small government conservative", which basically means being anti-civilization. They won the birth lottery, and the society and the government are stopping them from going from rich to filthy rich quickly.

The only thing here is that Musk happens to be fascinated with electric cars and space travel (ever since he was a teenager). We just got lucky - he could as well have gotten into opioids or coal mining, and his desire to dismantle the laws and norms would have burned even brighter.
