The headline is a bit misleading and presumptuous. While I get Musk is the owner of the company and probably tells the plant supervisors what to do in this situation, there is literally _nothing_ in this article that mentions anything about Musk directly telling employees "you work or no unemployment"... Pretty bad headline IMO - just used for shock value.

> there is literally _nothing_ in this article Nothing? On the very page are the following quotes attributed to the letter which seems to be signed by Musk: "“If you do not feel comfortable coming into work, you can stay home and will be on unpaid leave,” Musk wrote in an email obtained by The Guardian." "“Choosing not to report to work may eliminate or reduce your eligibility for unemployment depending on your state’s unemployment agency.”"

> “If you do not feel comfortable coming into work, you can stay home and will be on unpaid leave,” Musk wrote in an email "unpaid leave" is literally the definition of "Don't Get Paid". The headline itself doesn't say anything about unemployment. However it does quote from his email a bit further down which says > Choosing not to report to work may eliminate or reduce your eligibility for unemployment Whilst it's not directly "you work or no unemployment", I think most people reading it would take that implication, no?
