I appreciate Musk’s actions, but he isn’t who I am talking about.
He is good on 1st Amendment issues, and Musk is a producer not a looter, in the words of Ayn Rand. Almost every single politician we have in the government would be classified as a looter, along with more than a few in Big Pharm/Big Tech, and so on. On everything else, Musk is all over the map on various issues, and has been sucking the government teat with Tesla and getting chummy with the ChiComs. I don’t hold that much against him, as he is probably legal in those things, and...he does produce.
But because he is a good spokesman for 1st Amendment issues, I regard him as an ally in this, because it is the single most important issue today in my opinion. We may be able to dig out financially, as unlikely as that seems, we may be able to get a handle on immigration, we may be able to reverse the deliberate destruction of the military. But if we don’t get 1st Amendment issues squared away, nothing else is going to happen, or even matter.
The people I am that my post is aimed at are producing nothing, get as rich as Croesus, and that is it. They are in to protect their sinecure as President/Senator/Congressman/Appointee, and that is it. Getting filthy rich in the process. So few seem to ask the question: How can someone being paid $200K a year exit that job 4-8 years later millions of dollars richer, sometimes tens of millions of dollars richer?
It isn’t a Marxist class oriented point of view. It is a practical point of view.
So Musk isn’t one of the people I aim that comment at. He is not elected, and he isn’t someone who is going to institute change.
