For all his childish behavior on Twitter, Elon Musk would still like us to believe in his noble ambitions to make the world a better place. His space exploration company will make humans an interplanetary species, electric car maker Tesla Inc. will move us toward sustainable energy and his newly acquired Twitter will become a haven of free speech and healthy debate. Actually that last goal isn't going so well. Twitter stands little hope of becoming a financial or cultural success under Musk as he continues to drain…
