Elon Musk: America is a nation of explorers. That’s what makes it special.

“America is a nation of explorers. People came here from other parts of the world who chose to give up the known in favor of the unknown.

I think the United States is a distillation of the human spirit of exploration. That’s why it appeals to Americans so much.

You can see it when there was a shuttle tragedy and seven people died. That’s terrible, but a lot of people die all the time. Why do we care so much? Because it was the dream of exploration that was dying along with those people.”

Just 30 years ago Britain had a higher GDP than China and India combined let that sink in...

@DrClownPhD Was the movie woke or is this outrage just anti-female

@rosarinn @TFMcGuire1954 Ditto!

Elon Musk on who should control his companies in the future: It's a tough question. I want to make sure that the stewardship ultimately accrues to the benefit of humanity.

“Succession is one of the toughest age-old problems. It's plagued countries, kings, prime ministers and presidents, and CEOs, since the dawn of history. There is no obvious solution.

There are particular individuals I've identified. I've told the board, if something happens to me unexpectedly, this is my recommendation for taking over. In all cases the board is aware of who my recommendation is. They may choose to go a different direction, but in a worst case scenario, this is who should run the company.

The control question is a much tougher one, and something I'm wrestling with. I'm frankly open to ideas. It certainly is true that the companies I have created and are creating collectively possess immense capability, and so the stewardship of them is incredibly important. I want to make sure that the stewardship ultimately accrues to the benefit of humanity. That's the idea, the furtherance of civilization. Not that we're always successful in that, but that is aspirationally our goal.”

@slxthkween @USEuroAesthetic Happy to help

@zerohedge How much of this is just because these bigger states have ports?

@WhiteHouse The fundamental requirement of being a leader is to challenge the status quo

[Bearing @bear_ing]

Holy shit they’re doubling down, and asking that people do not share the footage. Insane.

@_Rileybennet I had no idea this was happening a lot

[John Merck 🇺🇸 @CornishDrake77]

@slxthkween @_Rileybennet I think we are being deliberately tricked into bad ideas.

People are in filter bubbles, too, where they don't realize certain bad trends are happening.

[John Merck 🇺🇸 @CornishDrake77]

@slxthkween @USEuroAesthetic I've lived in different areas throughout the country. I noticed some are unhealthy cultures, while others still retained their healthy traditions.

Go where you see more American babies and young kids in public places. If you don't see any, I think it's better to move.

I have become convinced that every single expansion of the vote was a net negative for America

mass democracy was a mistake

[John Merck 🇺🇸 @CornishDrake77]

@USEuroAesthetic That could be his sister?

[American Euro Aesthetics @USEuroAesthetic]

Find a woman like this who wants to have kids over a career. Then provide her a house and children to raise.

@RapidResponse47 @POTUS Trump, your stupid side projects are getting ridiculous and far too numerous

When are you going to work on things Americans fought for
