Same people that celebrate Musicians for winning Grammy award or nomination are under this post asking what value does winning Quran competition add

What value does Asake's Grammy add to anyone?
What value does Lookman African best player add?
What value does Wole Soyinka's Nobel laureate award add?

Or it is only when Quran is involved that we start asking questions?

Yeye people everywhere

[Perry E. Metzger @perrymetzger]

In the ancient world, the way many people gained great wealth was by forming gangs of strong men, beating up their neighbors, and taking their stuff.

People still speak with admiration of men like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, but they were little better than gangsters who enriched themselves through armed robbery.

This was a negative sum game, and assured that people remained poor and unhappy for thousands of years.

Eventually, however, we figured out that respecting each other’s rights, building things, and trading meant that we could play positive sum games instead. We could increase the amount of wealth, and all would benefit. As a result, we moved from living in unheated shacks to living in what our ancestors would’ve thought of as paradise in only a few hundred years.

However, there are still people out there who think that beating someone up and taking their stuff is a really great idea.

It is the great task of our civilization to shun such people, as they are not fit to be part of society.

Elon could literally solve homelessness tomorrow.

All he needs to do is sell his stake in the companies he created from the ground up, crashing the price and evaporating his wealth as well as the savings and pensions of workers globally.. handing the control of these companies over to short term profit interests and preventing any long term vision from being enacted..

THEN take whatever money that remains which will be nowhere near 1tn and give it to homeless charities who have never solved homelessness anywhere on earth because they’re financially incentivised to do the opposite.

Bam - homelessness solved.

The reason he doesn’t do any of this is because he’s evil.

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

The reason anyone gets insanely rich is almost always because of the stock market. It certainly how @elonmusk did.

And the reason they get rich from the stock market, is because 150m Americans decided they wanted to own shares of stocks directly, or through their retirement plans, or through other approaches as a way of building their net worth and trying to create a better life for themselves.

One Hundred Fifty Million Americans. About 60% of adults.

Effectively believing that @elonmusk and many billionaires could make them wealthier and help them achieve a better life.

If you want @elonmusk , and most billionaires to no longer be that rich, convince those 150m to sell their stocks, funds, ETFs whatever.

Of course you would wipe out the net-worth of most of those people, and everyone else’s savings, as the markets crashed and brought down the economy and created the worst depression we have ever seen.

Alternatively

There are ways to improve healthcare access and eventually make it available to all.

To start -
If you want @elonmusk and all billionaires to improve healthcare for everyone , ask them to stop doing business with the enormous healthcare conglomerates and to work directly with transparently priced care providers.

It’s the behemoth HC conglomerates that make HC so bad for so many. (Check my timeline for more detail)

Removing them would push the cost of healthcare down for everyone. Their corporate decisions impact our healthcare cost and availability.

Of course if they do that, not only would our HC costs go down , and the quality of care for their employees and the entire country go up

But

They would see their corporate cash flow increase dramatically and we would have more millionaires, billionaires and maybe even another trillionaire when that cash flow moved from the big health care conglomerates to their bottom line, so would the net worth of the 150 million American adults that own public stocks

Capitalism is better than socialism because 150m Americans can influence exactly what happens in this country.

[Bonchie @bonchieredstate]

Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and the rest aren’t dumb enough to actually think Elon Musk has a trillion dollars in cash waiting to be taxed.

They just think their followers are dumb enough to think that. And they are.

[Hazel Appleyard @HazelAppleyard]

Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire has been a really great IQ test for the general public.

You see people online who think Elon literally has a trillion dollars sitting in a bank somewhere and has chosen to just… keep it there.

These are not serious people and not worth engaging with. It’s like trying to have an intelligent discussion with a monkey.

[tetsuo @tetsuoai]

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.

I campaign for, and vote for competence only. If i have to travel to Niger State to do all that, to ensure candidates with genuine ability and interest to lead and bring meaningful changes to Nigeria are voted for, it would be for Dr Moh only! InshaAllah, SAI KAYI!

[Jonathan Said @JonathanSaid1]

The African continent doesn’t need more entrepreneurs. It’s full of them.

What it needs is a specific class of entrepreneurs called industrialists: business people who build value-adding firms in export-oriented job creating sectors, not rent capture.

They copy what they see abroad sometimes. The problem is that they try to copy the results and outcomes, not the process.

[Ayo-Elesho @Ayoelesho]

I can’t understand the mindset of the average Nigerian politician. They travel every time to developed countries and see all the good things.

They then come back home to suppress development.

I can’t wrap my head around it.
