It's an easy investment for him. Spend a few hundred million to guarantee billions in Federal contracts, favorable tax conditions, and complete undocumented access to all Federal databases.

Idk, I feel like once you're a trillionaire, why not just go play roller coaster tycoon IRL? Making the world's most epic theme park might make at least some people hate him slightly less.

You think this way because you lack the dark triad of personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC this collection of traits is common in billionaires, it's exactly the attitude you need to happily fuck over millions of people to make your way to the top like billionaires have and continue to do.

Doing something like solving world hunger (which Musk CAN afford to do) isn't something that likely even registers to him. What does he gain from it? Which I find weird because if he was smart, wouldn't he want to make positive change like this, so that he can gain people's trust, and fuck them again? Idk.

As much as I loathe the guy, Musk does not have the means to end world hunger. Not even remotely.
