    You should conserve electricity by posting less in the D&D.

    Elon is smarter and cooler than all the Beto ORokes and Ted Cruises combined

    plus as Bill Gates pointed out
    Elon is saving the world

    Tech companies rule the world anyway

    no Johnny silver hands

    Who would you rather have draw up energy policy ?
    Elon Musk or AOC?

    Let’s not go by star power because Elon got Dave Chappelle, Kanye , Rogan, Grimes , Leno
    On his side

    AOC got a bunch of tik tokers and art history dropouts

    So, other than apparently in your own mind is their any competition between AOC and Musk. They aren't on opposite teams or sides. It isn't an either or situation.

    All options are available. You can like both, neither, or either one. They aren't opponents.

    Completely agree. We need less people being productive and more people telling everyone what they are doing wrong.

    Martian not Liberian

    Liberian is a country where Michael Jackson wrote a beautiful timeless song that has been sampled by Tupac

    You know there are people asking me if there's a way clutch can make them 99ers?

    I told them no, that's not how it works

    God can't replicate God

    Can they be productive while not selling out to the Chinese? Can they be productive without all the various US government handouts from county, city, state, up to the federal level?

    I honestly dont understand your logic. All EV manufactures get a set amount of the $7500 tax credit, regardless of the manufacture, not just Tesla. There is not an 'Elon Musk government handout fund'. Do you not support the initiatives of the government helping out green tech? Or do you only support it if they fail like Solyndra? You also understand Tesla in itself is not a very profitable company, unlike your Iphone, which utilizes poverty wages in 3rd world countries so the company can be insanely profitable. You also need to understand Musk is stock rich. He doesnt take a salary (oh boo hooo why do these CEO's take hundreds of millions in salary. so greedy.).

    Why do you think its such a bad idea to help assist China get off fossil fuels? Additionally these are exports, something we sorely need.

    If you need pointers on why someone should hate Musk, I can help you.

    Elon Musk is human just like we are, but he is very successful, smart, and has many jealous haters. He's just like us 99ers on Clutchfans.

    All these people who HATE ELON FOR BEING RICH are THE SAME PEOPLE WHO HATES THE ROCKETS OWNER FOR BEING POOR.

    I know people must hate you brother for being smart, smart people don't hate dumb people, they just laugh at them.

    People hated Thomas Edison too and Gallieo
    and people hate science, cause science helps humans while politics divides humans
    and it's just a made up fiction by humans

    science > politics

    do other species have politics? no

    you think the great white shark who rules the ocean has politics?
    you think he cares about baby seals?
