Do yourself a HUGE favor and watch just one video of Elon talking about the Raptor engine before you decide you are smarter. Also, it's ok to not like someone and still respect their intellect.

No govt enforced cap, but a culture shift that promotes more much better pay for the employees that support the vision and deliver the results. Executives should want to incentivize their employees with more stake in the success/profits.
