That’s like saying Musk is richer than Midas, but its true.
It’s hard for the average person to wrap their minds around such extraordinary wealth.
There are several Billionaires walking the earth right now. Most in western countries.

Where are the State’s Attorneys Generals? They ought to go after GFM as they have other fraudulent businesses.

GOP and DEM alike are both invested in maintaining the status quo, while they merely jockey for position and favors within it.

There's a temporary and fragile unity of government, media, entertainment, big finance and academia all vs. society - which can not last. As it starts to crack, will the real tyrants and Stasi-types step to the fore to force acceptance a bit little longer? I can't predict.

Of course they will fight.
They already have (albeit indirectly) across several issues including this one.

Now that we know that the backoffice at GoFundMe can divert funds anywhere they want anytime they want to, it’s time to demand a SAS-78 review of all of their activities. How much gets donated that ends up in the bank account of the Clinton Foundation or Anthony Fauci’s bank account?

There’s a business opportunity here: Elon should suggest some of these Crypto operations setup a system for low-overhead donation processing, using Crypto to get the funds distributed.

The ‘Government subsidies” for EV:

ANY UNION built car by the Big 3 gets a $12,500 subsidy.

Musk isn’t UNION.

Tesla gets a $7,500 subsidy.

THAT IS DISCRIMINATION

Tesla sold more cars than the entire big 3 in 2021.

I need to make clear:

THE BUYERS get the subsidies.....NOT the manufacturers.

They did a pretty good number on President Trump.
He had conservative states behind him, he is a smart guy, he may not have as much money as Musk, but he is not poor either.

Smart guy.

If you think GoFundMe and their cohorts are going to do a number on Musk, you are not living in the real world. GoFundMe is not going to be looking too great after the Republican AG’s are done with them.
This is going to be a win win for Musk.

Well, the subsidies ran out for Tesla some time ago. If you buy a Tesla now there are none from the federal government. Why? Because the subsidies drop out after a certain production number has been reached. I also agree that Elon would be fiscally irresponsible to not take advantage of something the government put in place.

Elon is never going to get clearance for Starship now. The bidon administration is vicious and vengeful. Fortunately, Elon has been talking with the Russia. If you believe what the msm and biden admin is telling you about Russia, you haven’t been paying attention. Look-up the Russian form of government. You’ll find it closely resembles ours, without the corruption.

And don't even compare President Trump's wealth to that of Musk. They are not even on the same planet when it comes to wealth.

Well, non of Musk's money is coming from Starship. Almost all their SpaceX money is from Falcon 9, Starlink etc. And Falcon 9 is launching at record pace this year so far.
By the time Starship is actually completed, Dementia Joe will probably be dead from age related issues anyways.
