CousinsCowgirl84 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 (edited) I hope you all understand, because the tweet is misleading, Elon Musk is not being accused of sexual assault or racial discrimination, rather his companies are for a few isolated incidence. https://www.tesla.com/blog/regarding-todays-jury-verdict it’s funny how so many miserable mouth breathers take glee in smearing **** on people who actually accomplish things. It’s pathetic. At least The Times knows how important Elon is, and I will expect, they will also be hard on him for all the foolish things he has said.

michiskin Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I try very hard to avoid anything to do with a certain poster on this site, but here we go... You know what's truly embarrassing? Defending to the death someone who doesn't give a squirt of piss about you because owning the product they make makes you feel superior to others. That's embarrassing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hersh Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) Elon is a dick and he's doing his best to alienate the people that have supported Tesla from the get go. (Hint: Not conservatives) Having said that, the constant tweets by Dems against him are getting old and they aren't productive. Plus there are better ways to go about it. Throw in a little kindness. "We love Tesla's and what you've done with your companies. We also need billionaires to pay more in taxes."

Just because everyone is entitled to their opinion doesn't mean those opinions aren't embarrassing. Agree with @TheDoyler23, the world's richest man has the self-awareness and grace of a particularly ill-adjusted 14 year old, and that's embarrassing. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Elon is an asshole, but I’d probably be an asshole too if I had his money. I’d hire 10,000 clowns and send them Trump rallies to try to convince others that the clown outfit somehow signals their deep dedication to Trump. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoCommiesGo Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Maybe Elon is salty because he is actually having to pay taxes. Elon Musk May Well Have The Biggest Tax Bill This Year: Over $8 Billion Quote The eccentric billionaire (and the world’s richest person) likely owes the federal government at least $8.3 billion for 2021, Forbes estimates, based on his stock sales of nearly $13 billion through December 13. It’s almost like he’s lashing out because he’s having to pay taxes for the first time. Quote In some prior years, Musk has paid little to no taxes. According to a ProPublica investigation published in June, Musk paid a total of $455 million in federal income taxes between 2014 and 2018, while his wealth grew by $13.8 billion; Musk paid no federal income taxes at all in 2018. (He also didn’t sell any shares of Tesla that year.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CousinsCowgirl84 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) I’m sure we would all be upset if we found out we are gonna have to pay 8.3 billion dollars in taxes while at the same time being accused of being a free loader who doesn’t pay our fair share of taxes. 🧐 The vast majority of these entitled jokesters telling Elon he doesn’t pay his fair share won’t pay anything close to 1 million dollars in taxes over their entire life time.

Destino Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Why would he even care about taxes with that much money? He’s worth 300 billion and we don’t tax wealth in this country. Consider that if he earns just 1% annually, which is an absolutely terrible ROI, on 1/3rd of his net worth he’d gain a billion annually. Maybe I’m just too humble or something, but a billion a year seems like plenty. it just seems silly to me to make all that money and then quibble over taxes. I can understand a guy making 300k and trying to build enough wealth to be truly wealthy getting excited about tax rates… but at 300 billion? At that point Elon should be building castles on private islands and raising a loyal army of orphans to go out into the world and spread the good word of Elon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
