Elon Musk:
“If I die knowing that I did my best to do what was right, even if the history books say I did wrong, I would still feel okay about that. I care about the reality of goodness, not the perception of it.”

Land of the free. Home of the brave. Forever.

One of the most misunderstood facts is that the US was founded with abundance, whereas it was in fact built from scratch.
At the time of founding, Britain was the greatest nation governing the Seven Seas, while China was at its height with total land dominance in the East under the Qianlong Emperor.
The usable land of the US at founding was much smaller than that of either nation. The 13 colonies spanned 430K square miles, while Britain governed 2.5M square miles and China owned 5M square miles of territory.
The trade and economic volume of the 13 colonies was minuscule, consisting mostly of raw materials that barely registered on the charts. Combined, the 13 colonies produced $4B GDP, while Britain made $350B and China $2.5T in today’s dollars.
In other words, the 13 colonies were less than 0.2% of the world economy and much smaller than that of many African nations today.
The wealth of the US was not inherited but earned through survival and competition against stronger nations. Most people who came here brought nothing but empty hands yet built an empire from the ground.
This is something that people who inherit great resources from parents and ancestors cannot understand—like most nations in Europe and Asia, where wealth was dominated by inheritance, not earned. They mistakenly believe what we have now is a privilege. The trees we enjoy today were planted and nourished with sweat and blood by previous generations so that we could cut the wood for warmth.
Be a tree planter, not a wood chopper. Plant your tree today. 🌱
"Richard Symons, the owner of a U.K.-based used-car sales company that specializes in EVs, has found that the batteries that power these cars (Teslas) continue to perform well even after several hundred thousand miles.
“They are proving themselves to be exceptionally reliable."
“That was fun, I’ll do it again when I get out,” said the 22-year-old Gambian violent offender after he stabbed a 55-year-old Italian man twenty times.
And he will be released again. Perhaps to succeed in killing a European next time.
