Get rid of SEC regulations so he can be defrauded on the stock market. Get rid of copyright and trademark laws so his parts can be made by anyone and his company names reused.
Is he including Private Property among these discarded regulations?
Side note, Im still not buying this "Worlds richest man" Label.
I believe that title still belongs to Vladimir Putin. his wealth is not published though. He Robbed a vast nation blind to the point that he is a living god in Russia.
He mostly lives off debt with tesla being the collateral. Of tesla shares tank hes going to get margin called so to speak
I've been reading for 20+ years that the real richest in the world are oil barons in the middle east. I believe a few people are projected to have up to a trillion dollars in assets/wealth etc, but they aren't celebs or post about it via publicly traded organisations etc.
Who knows though
I mean the House of Saud is worth over a trillion dollars I believe.
Putin could also easily have over a trillion dollars in assets, but they'd obviously be hidden. Does he? We'll never know.
Putin has Musk and Trump by the balls, for sure.
I think its less of a master giving orders to a dog dynamic, and More of a "I'll have mine, you have yours" dynamic.
I still dont know if they are fucking crazy enough to try it. but this is whats in the back of my mind with this aggressive and jingoistic rhetoric against Canada, the EU, and Ukraine.
America may have stepped down from the stage of the Free world, and the Free world may very well be finished. but whats left of it still has nuclear weapons.
Remember that we're not allowed to call for violence, but it's okay when Elon does things like this, because allowing industry to poison whole towns isn't violence, it's just capitalism.
This horrible for sure, but it's worth noting they just made it so there are no on-paper repercussions for industry poisoning people. Poor people in rural areas have been getting poisoned (and/or driven from their homes) all along. Major media and unfortunately even EPA officials (as we saw for East Palestine) seem to just ignore or bury it most of the time, similar to the treatment environmental activists have reported when there's an oil spill/leak and media don't want to touch it. Here's the latest example I've heard about recently. (I'm not specifically trying to follow this stuff incidentally, but I'm always interested in who corporate media tend to ignore or treat unfairly.)
Sharing the names of Musk's helpers? Not okay.
Letting nuclear plants operate in a way that risks big swaths of the country uninhabitable? Totally cool.
My power company fucked up my autopay, they then preceeded to not tell me, then they shut off my power without a note or an in person heads up, leaving it indistinguishable from a regular outage until it was dark and my neighbors lights turned on and their billing department was closed for the night. In February.
I'm saying this because all this was illegal thanks to regulations. I reported it to the government because it was danger, irresponsible, and a dick move. I think a lot of people think of regulations as stuff like wheelchair ramps and no knowingly giving entire towns cancer, but it's also shit like this, that you have to tell people that you shut off their power for non-payment and warn them before you do so they don't have to spend a night eating takeout by candlelight for no reason.
Silver Spoon Autist Nazi Watched Iron man, and Played Cyberpunk, and became infactuated with the fiction of Tony Stark, and Sovereign Corpos. and decided "I want that"
Autistic people aren't born spoiled or privileged and certainly don't all have entitlement issues. Let's not treat Autism as an insult please.
World's richest person drunk on power

Why americans even pay taxes?
For the military and giving handouts to billionaires.
Do you want Corporate Wars? Because this is how you get Corporate Wars.
Good luck, chooms.
If industrialists can pollute wherever they want, we should be allowed to live wherever we want. Private property is just a regulation at the end of the day.
Rich people can afford private well-armed security guards... (No, the police don't count since we're not doing regulations any more)
Well time to stockpile then

Hey, Elon: I got some fresh snake oil that will make your dick bigger, make you actually good at video games, and women will actually want to have sex with you and not just because you have more money than fucking God.
