“We need clean air, not another billionaire!”

Musk was never going to save the planet – and neither will any other billionaire. While Musk encourages Americans to buy Teslas, he jets around the world on a private plane. He has claimed climate change alarm is “exaggerated.” He partnered with a coal mining billionaire to elect Trump, and is now working with the latter to gut federal environmental regulations.

Like other billionaires, Musk’s fortune has come at the expense of everyday people, from abusing his employees to calling his opponents criminals. His billions could fund public transportation, housing, healthcare, and education. Instead, he’s taking a chainsaw to all of the government departments which provide those essential services.

    While at it, can we take the rest of his shit down too? SpaceX had been blowing up billions of dollars, literally, all paid for by US tax payers and so far has barely anything to show for it. They fucking cheer every time a rocket goes up instead of understanding that they had it wrong and need to do better.
