From the other thread:

This would make a great thread.

What do the words don't trust have anything to do with with being libertarian or anti-libertarian?


Bill Gates, Miriam Adelson, Tom Steyer, George Soros, Peter Thiel... Donald Trump who has donated to many democrats including Hillary Clinton, Charlie Rangel, Kamala Harris TWICE, etc.......

and now ELON MUSK who has enough F&CK YOU MONEY that he doesn't have a thing to worry about, yet is being heralded as the next beloved billionaire involved with TrumpPolitics.

So I ask, what does don't trust have anything to do with being libertarian or anti-libertarian? I'm confused.

From the other thread:

I still don't get why you hate Elon. If you were Elon would you turn down an opportunity to rewrite regulations to your company's favor? I sure as heck wouldn't.

Because:


President Biden has long vowed to build 500,000 electric vehicle charging stations in the United States by 2030.

But now, more than two years after Congress allocated $7.5 billion to help build out those stations, only 7 EV charging stations are operational across four states.


I'm sure he and Trump will pull another OWS out of thin air for the electric car business and the repubs will love them for it.

Electric cars were and would be subsidized with or without Elon, I still don't get it.

And to the extent that he did lobby for any subsidies... he's a businessman, it'd be stupid not to.

It's like 100x better than it was before he took over. I'm sure Twitter still has a large remnant of leftists in its employ, and I can't fault Elon for having better things to do than to micro manage X

I hereby secede from your thought process, brother ;-)


Yeah, it would be stoopid for Musk not to want to take advantage. But it's even more stoopid for the tax-payers to make 'scuses for it.

Shrug. I don't know anything about electric cars but I do know he revolutionized the space industry

The way I look at it is this, nearly everybody in this country sends more to Uncle Sam than they can ever get back. So, get what you can back in whatever form you can.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one... Trump's brand new U.S. Space Force. Isn't that tax-payer funded too? Think Elon might branch out just a little bit?

I have a good friend down in Tennessee who campaigned for Ron Paul with me. We still keep in touch. The latest from him is, he turned 3rd Positionist because he believes that's the only way out of this mess. IOW: let the corporations run the government run the slaves.

That's pretty much the way that it is now, so why not go all out?

 

[acptulsa]

I fully expect the audit to cost a trillion. And don't expect anyone to audit the audit.

 

[Matt Collins]

Wasn't Musk on Trump's unofficial cabinet last time or something before getting out of it?

 

[unknown]

Musk?

Ron Paul bitch.

He was on Trump's Strategic and Policy Forum which included several different CEOs who advised the president on the economy.

Not as tax-payer funded as you might think. The majority of SpaceX launches and the majority of its revenue comes from Starlink.

The private space launch industry didn't even exist before Elon and his company is less reliant on government revenue than its ever been.

Pretty impressive I would say for basically inventing an entire new industry.
