No. The American people as a whole have become entitled, lazy, govt dependent people. Part of why we are in steep decline.

Hey Elon, go talk to Steve Saleen about the Chinese;

quote:

I would later find out that while I was busy fulfilling my end of the bargain, the joint venture applied for 510 Chinese patents for my designs, technologies, trade secrets and engineering developments. Most of the patent filings didn’t even list me as the inventor. With many of these Chinese patents approved, Rugao was ready to take over the joint venture and steal the intellectual property.

Good article in the WSJ.

Elon Musk is Lex Luthor, and Superman doesn't exist.

This is going to be a tough one for the OT. We hate China while also hating Cali and NY. What to do?

Speaking for myself, I don’t hate China; I hate the Chinese Communist Party, which is illegitimate because it does not represent the people.

I adopted two semi-feral outdoor cats that used to bring home mice, birds, lizards, insects etc. to show me how bad arse they were. I started feeding them cat food and now all they do is hang out on the back yard/patio . They magically show up on the back porch "feeding area" at 6AM and 4PM daily just to be feed. I have not seen a kill in many months....

1. He's right you know. The Chinese are the only group of people that work harder than the central americans and willing to work in unsafe conditions. Americans work hard? srsly just look at the teachers union wrt to covid and starting the school year.

2. He is building a huge facility near Shanghai and is trying to get $1.5 billion in low interest loans from the Chinese Government.

China is a-hoe but you can't deny the citizens hard workers that will work for peanuts and risk their health and safety doing it.

frick you cock sucker. I’m not spoiled, rotten, nor a POS. I work, pay a ton in taxes, have nice things that I take care of cause I paid for them and I obey the law. I don’t hurt or bother anyone. And those confiscatory taxes I’m paying...well they are confiscated by a government that enables rotten spoiled pieces of shite to be so.

Pack your shite and go if you have so much contempt for this place. You’re part of the problem as well. So do your part to make it better and leave.

China rocks in my opinion.



When is he moving? He’s pissed at Cali cause they’re virus response was hurting g his manufacturing operations. Let’s se how happy he is when the Chicoms nationalize his company.

He’s another turd who’s success has been largely funded by US taxpayers and he’s lauding another country that would likely have put him in a prison camp.

Bye Elon. Let Me know how things work out When you get to the People’s Republic.

In some ways he is not wrong. That is why for a while Japan kicked out asses in electronics and autos. We corrected and got back to number one.
