Elon Musk: Smartest Guy in The World or Complete Clown?

[TBS]

Galloway's pretty good on at least one reason why that's so: https://www.profgalloway.com/elephants-in-the-room/

Kinda looks like the TWTR shareholders sold out just in time
While Musk was focused on bot accounts, he missed the impending ad revenue tsunami

Can’t happen soon enough, IMO.

Hopefully the nail in the coffin is regulating out of existence a business model built on invading peoples privacy, building creepily accurate profiles of them, and then weaponizing their own data and psychology against them to make egotistical, cynical billionaires.

Zuckerburg, Page, Brin, Dorsey, et al are right up there with the Sacklers as far as I am concerned.

Probably worse

Hey hey the twat used his platform to recommend voting Republican. Yeah no one saw that coming. Can we tax billionaires out of existence now?

Anyone who follows the political voting advice of a Musk-like billionaire and isn't a Musk-like billionaire themselves is a fool.

What common interests do we have with him and his reality?

Unfortunately, we are a country of fools.

It didn't escape my attention that he is trying to break in to the pick up truck market with "bulletproof" cybertrucks.. and also their lowest pricepoint.

Ya they didn't pass the first test.. and ya anything non ICE is a tough sell to that crowd... But bulletproof? That's something that Vanilla ISIS Ya'll Queda Gravy Seals would buy for that feature alone..

They all think they'll pay less taxes (and get the same services).
Just minutes ago I was hearing a so-called "law and order" candidate saying they wanted to cut IRS staff. It's weird. You'd think only criminals would fear the IRS.

No, most were geezers working on legacy mainframe and Hitachi systems. Contracts.

I thought you worked in trading securities, but it's maintaining sex toys?

Lots of temporarily embarrassed millionaires in this country.

That portion of the business does portfolio and index pricing. The tech really hadn’t changed much and I knew plenty of lifetime techs there. Extremely profitable business with wide moat:

“Founded in 1968 as a Waltham, Massachusetts-based time-sharing company, Interactive Data Corporation was acquired by Chase Manhattan Bank in 1974.

Like competitor National CSS (NCSS), their time-sharing service was based on IBM's CP/CMS Time-sharing software for the IBM System 360 Model 67. IDC focused on the financial industry, while NCSS had a broader client base.

Less IRS agents, more Border Patrol and local police..
"Law and Order" is just for poor black and brown people, not for wealthy white people.....

But IRS collecting taxes is how they fund all these things...

The IRS also processes millions and millions of middle class and working class TAX RETURNS. They're intentionally leaving out that detail..

6 months ago the current admin announced the hiring of 87,000 new IRS agents. Are you intentionally leaving out that detail?

NO. I'm saying they're not just to catch tax cheaters, something only the GOP reps seem to fear. They're coming to help process the missive backlogs of TAX REFUNDS too .

[jackstraw]

Jfc. The multi millionaire righty politicians riling up their base about the IRS just to protect themselves from potential audits because they're fucking white collar criminals and they know it.

[Meadow Skipper]

employees... not agents

‘Agents’ is a lot more inflammatory, which suits people that like to inflame.

[sirbumpsalot]

employees... not agents

Semantics....change my post to mean STAFF/EMPLOYEES/HEADCOUNT,NUMBER etc instead of "AGENTS".



Sorry for the confusion.

[sirbumpsalot]

I don't care about that...seriously...I was chuckling at your "They're intentionally leaving out that detail..." statement and nothing else.

[skaredshtles]

Probably.

Yeah? Well that doesn't fit the moran narrative...

I will trust what Joe Biden says over what some orderly working in the tricities says. Sorry and have a nice day.

Can’t stop lying, can you. None of that is true.
