Unfortunately, that's all you need to become a billionaire in this country (besides a massive inheritance).

Every subsidy and tax credit Tesla ever got was earned through fraud and deception.

He got sued into buying Twitter after trying to back out, and now acts like it was always his master plan.

Emerald mines? What emerald mines.

Rocket explosion? It was supposed to do that, look at all my engineers clapping and cheering knowing they'll be fired if they don't.

Nobody wants to pay for a checkmark? Of course they do, look at all the check marks he's buying for them.

This man's entire career has been him screaming "I'm not owned, I'm not owned, you're owned." And it works. Because capitalism is the exact opposite of a meritocracy.
