Tesla aside it’s absolutely incredible that some of these dumbasses don’t understand how massive of a success SpaceX has been

Right?

SpaceX lowered the per pound cost of payloads by a factor of 25…that is insane. They’ve made themselves the Amazon of space flight…everyone uses them.

I don’t agree with everything he says and does but what he has done with Tesla and SpaceX is literally sci-fi. You have to be pretty childish to let your personal feelings get in the way of acknowledging that.

Yeah but he’s a free speech absolutist who uncovered massive government censorship within Twitter and then shined a huge light on massive government corruption so, according to the left, he’s literally Hitler.

You got downvoted because the statement is retarded.

Yes, I also trust the government to decide what's financially right and wrong. Not saying this necessarily applies to Musk, but "it's legal (right now)" is not the best standard.

Awesome. If he actually hits his targets then he will have forever transformed the world, creating a completely new industry in space worth tens of trillions of dollars going forward.

Oh, and I bet the $6T is light because the author is likely using the IPO share value instead of a projected share price if all those metrics are achieved.

Who asked you to accept Elon Musk as your Lord and Savior?

You must live in an out of the way town.
I see dozens of Teslas.
I would never own one though...

How much in taxes does he pay compared to the average American?
He pays more in one year than any of us non-billionaires will in our lifetime. Tesla paid over $1.2 Billion in taxes last year alone.

Yes he oversells but he seems to aim super high and falls short of amazing promises but the result is still extraordinary progress over time that outpaces his competitors by a mile. Had he not waded into politics during last election, he would probably be even further ahead as many progressive car buyers eliminated his cars as an option.


He’s the richest man in the world… he has zero barriers. Yet he doesn’t have a fully autonomous vehicle. Period.

Do you know who the largest portion of that 1.2B went to?

In fact he does have a fully autonomous car, it is just limited by government and regulations which I am okay with.

You’ve lost all credibility on that statement alone. I’m in podunk Louisiana & Teslas are almost common to see on the road

No. You’re very wrong

He meant once a minute but the retard in him was on a roll.

Of course Musk is a grifter. But people on here act like Musk is our Lord and Savior because he agrees with their politics. And I got downvoted to -25 for questioning that Musk is our Lord and Savior.

PS I'm hardly some liberal myself, and you can look at my post history and see me questioning the difference between transgenderism and imagining that you're an elephant.

See? He's got a bad case of it.
