The reason anyone gets insanely rich is almost always because of the stock market. It certainly how @elonmusk did. And the reason they get rich from the stock market, is because 150m Americans decided they wanted to own shares of stocks directly, or through their retirement plans, or through other approaches as a way of building their net worth and trying to create a better life for themselves. One Hundred Fifty Million Americans. About 60% of adults. Effectively believing that @elonmusk and many billionaires could make them wealthier and help them achieve a better life. If you want @elonmusk , and most billionaires to no longer be that rich, convince those 150m to sell their stocks, funds, ETFs whatever. Of course you would wipe out the net-worth of most of those people, and everyone else’s savings, as the markets crashed and brought down the economy and created the worst depression we have ever seen. Alternatively There are ways to improve healthcare access and eventually make it available to all. To start - If you want @elonmusk and all billionaires to improve healthcare for everyone , ask them to stop doing business with the enormous healthcare conglomerates and to work directly with transparently priced care providers. It’s the behemoth HC conglomerates that make HC so bad for so many. (Check my timeline for more detail) Removing them would push the cost of healthcare down for everyone. Their corporate decisions impact our healthcare cost and availability. Of course if they do that, not only would our HC costs go down , and the quality of care for their employees and the entire country go up But They would see their corporate cash flow increase dramatically and we would have more millionaires, billionaires and maybe even another trillionaire when that cash flow moved from the big health care conglomerates to their bottom line, so would the net worth of the 150 million American adults that own public stocks Capitalism is better than socialism because 150m Americans can influence exactly what happens in this country.

Capitalism is better than socialism because one man gets to be a trillionaire instead of everyone having healthcare

The Finals ending with a bricked Wembanyama 3-pointer pretty much sums up the whole thing. 9/33 for the series. The Knicks played harder. The Knicks played smarter. The Knicks were the more poised team in crunch time. Talent didn’t determine this series, maturity did.

The Scottish soccer team might not win the World Cup, but the fans from Scotland have put on a performance in Boston that William Wallace would be proud of

Tell me you don't watch sports without telling me you don't watch sports
Notice how, unlike the NBA, all of the Team USA soccer players have their hands over their hearts for the national anthem! This isn’t about black or white. This is about the NBA being full of ungrateful bitches who hate the country!
Community note
The player pictured in the NBA photo is Victor Wembanyama, who is a French citizen, not an American. As a French national, he has no cultural or legal obligation to place his hand over his heart during the United States national anthem. britannica.com/biography/Vict…

Dear Neighbors, You don't have to wait to mow your lawn until the minute someone else is finished. It's okay to be mowing at the same time.

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial turns 44 today. Spielberg’s not-so-secret weapon is John Williams. He loves building sequences that allows the score to do the heavy lifting, like this three-minute bike chase. Four decades later, it still gives me chills.

Happy birthday to the legendary Howlin' Wolf, one of the defining voices of the Blues whose impact reached far beyond the genre itself. The Doors paid tribute to Wolf with their take on “Back Door Man” from the debut album, bringing a new interpretation to the Willie Dixon written song he made famous. Photo courtesy of Getty Images.

If you generate ai music and upload it to dsps you’re a scammer. If you are a musician pushing generative ai music platforms you’re a traitor. Hope this helps!
