According to many comments, the US government DOES use SQL, and Musk is not understanding much what's going on.
Problem is you can't shut down your account with the government because that's your everything. That's your identity, that's your retirement, that's your unemployment. And he's been given carte blanche to fuck with it in any way he feels like by the giant orange douchebag who thinks Elmo's a fucking genius. And the Republican Congress is either unwilling or too scared shitless of his billion$ to get in his way.
Yup, the bottom line is, there was this dude who, upon buying a website, fucked it up.
Upon attaining unprecedented government position, he got access to government systems, and fucked them up.
Did anyone vote for this? No, no one voted for this. Were there supposed to be checks and balances to stop this from happening? Well, theoretically, maybe, but, urgh, the Founding Fathers didn't expect anyone to unleash the Ultimate Idiot on crucial data infrastructure.
There's really just one way to close your government account and I really wish Elon would do it.
