@rbreich I agree that it is pretty disgusting and he shouldn't get it but everybody is talking like he has already been given the trillion. But he hasn't yet, has he? Telsa needs to reach a market capitalisation of $US7.5 trillion, Tesla needs to deliver 1 million robotaxis and 1 million AI robots.

@rbreich I think the Capitalism as Power researchers (CasP) are onto something. Money can be a proxy and stand-in for power, but sometimes the explanation is just naked power.

@rbreich I wrote and called my financial institutions, to no avail. It's unbelievable that anyone could look at this pay package and think that Musk is worth that. No one is worth that, let alone the supposed leader of a car manufacturer (when he bothers to show up to work).

@rbreich

In modern.. which is a parasitic if not metastasize cancerous form of finance valorizes laying off workers and not having products. Their idea is a predatory and Ponzi driven economy.

In any sensible economic culture, the idea of laying off draws of workers would be horrifying because that means that everything downstream of them economically as consumers and his workers dies as well.

We have psychopaths dancing over the idea of burning down the economy

@rbreich
One more reason not to buy anything from Tesla or stocks of that company. The share on each single product is incredible high for that decision.
