Ya he could be. Men are simple and it ain’t because of wanting food from their wives. We only have one organ they need to take care of….
Our eyes, we got sports and zombie movies that need tended to when we get home.

Having the goal of abolishing poverty does not mean the current system didn't reduce poverty dramatically. The dramatic improvement also doesn't mean that capitalism is the only way to abolish poverty (or even that capitalism could ever abolish poverty). And reducing poverty broadly doesn't mean capitalism didn't create poverty in other ways. We can both acknowledge the successes of the current and past systems and want to do better in the future.

I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Kunce. But, I don’t agree with him here. I agree with Elon more.

But Elon sacrifices his wallet while the people on the assembly line sacrifice their body and sometimes life.

I have not heard that about Tesla. But, I’m not going to dispute if they have had safety issues.
Bit, that doesn’t mean Elon doesn’t build things or that just because he’s a billionaire, he should be looked at as something bad.
And, I’m not an Elon fan.

I'm just talking about workers in general, at the OEM and the suppliers. Deaths in OEM plants are extremely rare, deaths in the suppliers are rare but they do happen. All these workers sacrifice their bodies. Repetitive motions 500+ times a day in a noisy, dusty environment is not good on your body.

But, that’s not how I feel it should be looked at. It’s wrong to say Elon hasn’t built things that people benefit from because he’s a billionaire.

I mean technically he didn't build s#!t. He did finance and have the general idea for it, or he bought the idea in the case of Tesla.

I don't think it's right to use billionaire as a pejorative without context. But we do live in an age where billionaires like Musk want to portray themselves as victims. and that's equally silly.

Sacrifice is only one component amongst many that go into 'building' something. Vision, ingenuity, organizational leadership, etc. are also components.

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar's campaign cash to consultants fell by millions of dollars after she removed her husband's firm from her payroll, a Fox News Digital review of federal filings has found.
The Minnesota lawmaker dished out millions of dollars from her campaign's coffers to the E Street Group, a political consulting firm co-owned by her husband, Tim Mynett, during the 2020 election cycle. Mynett's group had raked in half of Omar's total expenditures, making it the committee's largest vendor during that election.
