Elon Musk's contribution to the national economy:
Over 2021–2025, Musk's companies (Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, Neuralink, The Boring Company) reportedly injected ~$338 billion directly into the U.S. economy via:
• $110.7 billion in wages/salaries (supporting • 200,000+ employees at competitive pay).
• ~$46 billion in taxes (corporate, payroll, etc.).
• $182 billion+ in supplier spending (e.g., Tesla alone spent heavily on U.S. batteries, chips, steel).

@JimmyFoles@martinvars@elonmusk I think he is a nut still lol but that’s why he’s so successful. Idk, I’m completely aware that i have an autistic son who adores Elon, so i’m biased. But i think they see, what we don’t as easily.
