To recover the gold, we must slay the dragon.

But if we were to tax him he’d… What’s the current lie again?
It would be very bad for the economy. Exactly what economy “the” stands for is not specified, I can only assume it must be “the” Elon Musk economy.
That’s at least the economy of top 10% and very often the top 1%. It’s a different world up there.
It’s so much a different world, they lose contact with reality.
Top 1% still includes people who fail to pay bills sometimes. This is the economy of the 0.01% at most.
Not taxing him is also bad for the economy
All we have to do is seal up the loophole that says money borrowed against stock value isn’t income.
But I don’t even understand why capital gains are not considered income.
This guy could solve world hunger and all kinds of other things and just chooses not to. And does all kinds of destructive things.
He’s an asshole.
He’s an asshole.
Such an understatement. He is evil. No other word cuts it.
He’s rotten shmegma discharge mixed with pus
He could literally be a legend who is remembered forever for his philanthropy, but he chose to buy a president and fuck up a whole ass country with his techbros.
Imagine being the one who kills the first half trillionaire. Wouldn’t that be pretty neat?
Maybe he could also become worlds first halved half-trillionaire?
Or perhaps quartered?
The important thing is that they are equally sized.
Fuck that guy. I hope he gets pancreatic cancer.
That shit means nothing. A happy community is worth may more. It has value.
Can’t say the person who’s used their children as human shields would know that
Cool, many Americans are struggling to pay their bills and are close to being on the street…
At this point if you are still using a Tesla you are supporting racism and sexism
A symptom of a failed society
fuck this guy
Not true. Many are trillionaires, depending on the currency you use. I know I’m a millionaire in Cambodia for example.
I’m pretty sure he’s aware how “wealth” is calculated and plans his “wealth” accumulation so it looks higher in those stats.
And as the sub-headline says: as soon as Tesla stock fails (wtf did it rise?) he is not ultra rich anymore, I daresay he might be in serious trouble.
