Homeless, yachtless Elon Musk, who actually builds rockets, EVs, and neural tech trying to benefit humanity, should apparently cough up $50 billion in taxes on unrealized gains.
Meanwhile, Laurene Powell Jobs ($15B inherited), Nancy Walton ($20B inherited), and MacKenzie Scott ($40B divorce) never built shit, never risked shit, and never shipped a single product that changed the world.
But they get the praise and zero scrutiny. Because they have the right politics.
(BTW ~25% of Walmart employees are on government benefits.)
Sanders and the rest of the butt hurt politicians who haven't done a single thing in their life nor created any similar products as Elon. Sat in government roles their entire career and mooched off the American tax payer barely taking any risk.
History's first trillionaire is a guy who catches rockets out of the sky with chopsticks and beams internet to every dead zone on the planet.
Same guy ships cars that drive themselves, humanoid robots for the factory floor, brain chips that let paralyzed people move a cursor with pure thought, and an AI running on a supercomputer his team stood up in months instead of years.
And the people crashing out about his net worth are doing it on the app he owns. The same app governments spent years trying to censor.
You cannot legislate a rocket into orbit.

@Amer1can_Barbie Can't wait for my daughter to be able to back in the truck / trailer so I can drive the boat up. Saves my ass from falling in or hurting something jumping in/out of the boat. #SimpleThingsInLife
