So you’re saying we should also abolish golf courses. I agree.
I note that Elon Musk's wealth now exceeds the annual GDP of Switzerland.
I think this makes him a state-level actor, and a *hostile* one.
I submit that we have tools for dealing with rogue states, and they should be applied to him until/unless he starts to behave. NB: said tools vary from polite talkings-to by diplomats all the way up to cruise missile strikes and invasions.
Right this minute there is a giant Monster Energy Drink banner ad plastered at the White House.
We are in a literal Idiocracy.
I laughed at this. America will never know dignity again.
The White House has shown once and for all time exactly what they are. And that their price is within reach of an energy drink maker budget.
Not just whores but cheap ones too.

"Benjamin owns a farm. He employs 100 workers plowing his fields. His total payroll is $10 million/year. One day, he buys a mule, which provides the worker who uses it with a modest 10 percent productivity gain. Benjamin fires 99 of his workers and purchases 99 mules, expecting a 1,000 percent productivity gain. The driverless mules cause plow damage to his property in excess of $50 million. Benjamin loses another $5 million due to the loss of productivity from his one remaining employee, who no longer guides a plow but instead spends 100 percent of his time shoveling mule shit. Goldman Sachs builds an altar to Benjamin in their lobby and cuts out the heart of a junior analyst on it every Friday. They call it “Blood Sacrifice Friday.” The name isn’t catchy, but the event becomes a management favorite nonetheless."
