Elon, with his money, created trillions in value. Politicians, with your money, created trillions in debt.

Elon Musk is not stealing from you. Gavin Newsom is stealing from you. Karen Bass is stealing from you. Tim Walz is stealing from you. Elizabeth Warren is stealing from you. AOC is stealing from you. Becoming wealthy does not make you evil. The people who take from you, promising to fix problems and then enriching themselves while trying to get you to hate those they're taking the money from... are evil.

Notice how socialists never talk about seizing the wealth of George Soros or any of the other multi-billionaires who bankroll their operations. They would be praising Elon to the sky, and vigorously protecting his wealth, if he were politically on their side.

Tout le monde devient fou parce qu'Elon Musk a une fortune de 1 000 milliards de dollars. Très bien. Faisons les comptes, calmement. L'État fédéral américain dépense 7 000 milliards de dollars par an. La fortune entière d'Elon, accumulée sur 30 ans de travail, représente 52 jours de dépenses de Washington. L'État français dépense 1 700 milliards d'euros par an, 57% du PIB, record absolu du monde développé. La fortune d'Elon, c'est 7 mois de dépenses publiques françaises. Maintenant, la question que personne ne pose : qu'est-ce que chacun a produit avec cet argent ? Washington, avec 7 000 milliards par an : un déficit de 1 800 milliards, une dette de 38 000 milliards, et des intérêts de la dette qui dépassent désormais le budget militaire. La Californie de Newsom a brûlé plus de 15 milliards dans un train à grande vitesse qui n'existe pas. La NASA a dépensé plus de 24 milliards pour développer le SLS, une fusée jetable à 4 milliards le lancement. La France, avec 1 700 milliards par an : un hôpital en crise permanente, une école qui s'effondre dans les classements internationaux, 3 400 milliards de dette, et pas une seule entreprise technologique de rang mondial créée en 25 ans. Elon, avec une fraction microscopique de ces budgets : le Falcon 9 développé pour environ 400 millions de dollars, là où la NASA estimait elle-même qu'il lui en aurait coûté 4 milliards. Dix fois moins cher. Des fusées qui atterrissent. Le coût du kilo en orbite divisé par 20. Starlink qui connecte des millions de personnes que les plans d'aménagement du territoire ont oubliées pendant 40 ans. Tesla qui a forcé toute l'industrie automobile mondiale à basculer vers l'électrique, ce que 30 ans de COP et de subventions n'avaient pas réussi à faire. Donc récapitulons. Les États ont des moyens 10 à 50 fois supérieurs, le monopole de la loi, le monopole de l'impôt, et des décennies d'avance. Elon a beaucoup moins de moyens, zéro pouvoir de contrainte, et il surperforme tout le monde, dans tous les domaines où il entre. Ce n'est pas un hasard. C'est structurel. Quand un entrepreneur alloue son propre argent, chaque erreur lui coûte personnellement, donc il apprend vite. Quand un bureaucrate alloue l'argent des autres, chaque erreur est invisible, diluée, et souvent récompensée par un budget supplémentaire l'année suivante. L'un a une boucle de feedback, l'autre n'en a pas. La conclusion s'impose d'elle-même : le pouvoir de créer des systèmes dans le monde réel doit TOUJOURS être donné aux entrepreneurs qui allouent leur propre argent. Pas parce qu'ils sont meilleurs moralement. Parce qu'ils sont les seuls à payer le prix de leurs erreurs, et donc les seuls capables de corriger. Milei a TOUT compris. Re-regardez son discours de Davos. "L'État n'est pas la solution, l'État est le problème lui-même." Tout le monde a ri en 2024. L'Argentine est sortie de l'hyperinflation pendant que la France cherche encore 40 milliards d'économies qu'elle ne trouvera jamais. L'histoire ne juge pas les intentions. Elle juge l'allocation.

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.

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day. 400 of them are now worth over $100 million. These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries. Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000. Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous." The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before. Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.

Kako kaže sirotinja, “kome je to Musk pomogao”?
A man working as a welder at SpaceX for $28 an hour has just become a millionaire. Juan Hernandez, who came from Mexico, welded rockets for SpaceX at $28 an hour. SpaceX gave him $10,000 in stock when he went full time in 2015, and he bought more with every paycheck for 10 years. $SPCX is now trading at $167, making his shares worth over $1 million.

Ovako kapitalizam funkcionira. Brojni od ovih su rani zaposlenici. Isto tako su brojni zaposlenici nVidije postali milijunaši, ali i brojnih drugih uspješnica.
Bad day for communism.
