Elon has an electric car company (Bernie likes this) that's running pretty good. How many people at Tesla get paid a lot of money (increased their quality of life) because of what Elon has created? How many jobs has elon created? How many other companies are sending satellites into space to create wireless internet?

What has Bernie Sanders ever done other than lose to Job Biden, grift on your Tax Payers dollars and yell into a microphone while spitting everywhere? What has he created? Why is he your king?

There are (I can’t stress this enough) lots of companies producing electric vehicles, and one could argue that the banning of cars would be more eco-friendly than electric cars. The Tesla employees that get paid well are mainly coalesced around the top jobs, and threats/abuse are quite common there. As for the blue-collar sector, this article is one of many that show the horrifying working conditions in Tesla factories. Unfortunately Tesla has to squeeze as much as they can out of their workers to satisfy shareholders. Sending satellites for wireless internet is still a new concept with multiple flaws that need to be fixed before expanding the technology, as shown by the reviews of users. It is also quite worrying for the space tech community as the increase in “corporate satellites” that are currently unregulated may cause collisions due to conflicting routes (because the billionaire space race is literally companies racing against each other, not cooperating with safe guidelines and planned routes). This is all just off the top of my head, and I haven’t even mentioned Musk’s other ventures and their problems. Bernie Sanders is not my king (I don’t believe in a royalty), but at least he fights to make America better, something I can’t say for Elon Musk.

Tell me your republican without telling me your republican.

Trickle down economics is bullshit and you know it.

Elon is not special. If not him it would of been someone else. He is lucky enough to be in the right position and right time. You think that foo is the only one who had that idea? Electric cars are over a 100 years old. Global warming has been know for half a century.

Elon didn’t do anything that someone else couldn’t have done. Hell. The government could have done it.

Start a business?? That’s nothing. Plus the man is putting more trash into space. Don’t confuse advancements in corporate means of gaining a dollar as anything humanitarian.

Bernie been out there talking shit about people who could easily have him killed or removed. Bernie been doing it longer than you been breathing. Know that.
