The Tesla CEO emphasized that he would not let anyone be arrested for breaking the lockdown. Still many in the comments rebuked Musk for choosing to earn money over ensuring the safety of his factory workers and asked whether Musk is going to pay for funerals if any of the employees die.
Will you also take responsibility for dead employees and pay for funerals? It's really sad that you value production over human life.
