Maybe he should concentrate on engineering and otherwise keep his big mouth shut.

If pop stars, actors and mentally challenged high school dropouts get to have a say ..... why not Elron?

I don't dispute that.  But genius and a few hundred billion in stimulus money, plus a bevy of lawyers and hundreds of lobbyists...

 

When was the last time you saw an Amazon drone delivering your goodies?

 

Musk is absolutely a genius.  I know because I see the results driving around all over.  He hasn't simply consolidated a bunch of distribution networks and changed the way we buy stuff that already existed.  He's given us products that we couldn't buy before he spanked the big car companies.  And the power companies.  And NASA.

 

 

Amazon is the only reason the USA functioned so well during the virus. Musk is a genius in regards to innovation. Bezos is probably the smartest guy on the plane in regards to logistics and execution. Amazon isn't as exciting as Tesla and Space X.

 

Amazon however services a much larger segment of the global population and it's market cap relative to Tesla illustrates this quite clearly. 

 

Bezos is also in the space game in a much smaller way. Wait for his end to end virus free supply chain to get into gear. Amazon is also going into the health space. Musk is also just getting started for a lengthy run of successes some of which we can't even imagine yet.

 

However if you had to live on a planet in 2020 with one or the other Amazon is infinitely more useful.

It would seem more reasonable to break NASA up ..... as they have absolute control of all space exploration.

 

Is that why NASA was at the mercy of the Russian's to get people in space? You don't think China is in space or Israel and even Iran these days blows a rocket up on the launch pad.

Yeah and the government just made Amazon a much bigger entity in the past 6 months. 

Yes, this Government did.

 

It’s done a lot of helping out to big businesses at the cost of small businesses and private citizens.

You have a very small idea of what constitutes a functioning society.

It’s worse than that.

 

If you were to sell a widget on Amazon and your sales take off, Amazon’s algorithms pick up your success and then Amazon starts selling the same widgets using their buying power to undercut you and take your business off you.

 

Amazon’s business model is parasitic.

 

Bezos has had a good run, it’s now time to reinfect some free market.

 

 

 

Are you a Communist.....?  ????  Serious question..

"Unreported Truths about COVID-19 and Lockdowns: Part 1: Introduction and Death Counts and Estimates."

Amazon originally refused to publish Berensons

book, but after a firestorm of complaints on

social media and from Musk, Amazon capitulated.

Thanks to that, the truth of the Fakedemic is in

the public domain.

It was mainly the blue states that closed the mom and pops leaving Amazon, Walmart, Costco and Krogers the only ones in the game.
