What is 1,000,000,000 - 8,000,000? Per day…

Insightful. Will read 45 more times tonight in hopes even a portion sinks in.

I know that $8,000,000 x 365 = $2,920,000,000 annually

Think of all the Ethiopian bath houses and live trans strip shows for 3rd graders that could fund!

It’s a few billion less than what NASA receives.


The less expensive one is having to go save people stuck in space that the more expensive one got stuck up there.

And he’ll probably use a recyclable rocket to do it.

Let me guess… this is some tax credit or deduction for his business.

List the sources of the $8 million /day.

He’s made a ton of fake money off carbon credits that might disappear tomorrow.

Most people will never touch grass on $1million.

That’s a lot of opportunity to cut waste and fraud from bloated government spending.

However, Musk has gotten 5 inspector generals fired that had something in common.

They were looking at waste at fraud in contracts that flowed to Elon’s companies.

Why was the Biden Administration buying shite from Elon if it’s such a waste?

That was only implemented in the last few years since his departure from the democrat platform.

At least I can watch the rockets go up and down out of the sky. Much better than $8million/day going to Africa for a study to see if rainbow colored meth makes mice turn gay or trans

Now, give me list of people who have shot massive rockets into space and caught them on the way down with a set of mechanical chopsticks. Give me a list of people that the government has tasked with rescuing trapped astronauts from space. Give me a list of people that own the biggest automotive manufacturing companies. Then give me a list of people that are uncovering massive government fraud. If someone who meets all of those criteria is making $8M/day, then so be it.

You don’t think what Elon is doing through Tesla (saving the planet renewables), SpaceX (literally going to save a stranded astronaut), and Starlink (doing more to connect the world and rural America than anyone in hsitory) is worth any investment? Is there no ROI?

This is a weird “gotcha” unless you think any of these ventures aren’t worthwhile and good for America

renewable energy or politico subscriptions?

every kid in rural America having Internet or illegal immigrants in hotels in New York?

humans learning what’s in the universe and aiming for the moon and mars or Iraq Sesame Street?
