How much work has he had done? Waxy cnut.
I don't get this at all. He has so much money (and to many) brains, surely he doesn't need to be attractive too? Yet he spends some of it on becoming this. As if it fooled anyone.
Then again this is true for 95% of people in the public eye. I just don't understand why.
He predicted the pandemic would be over in May 2020. Isn’t that good enough for you?
What I don't understand is that no one has twigged that rarely do you ever look better after cosmetic surgery. Obviously I'm not talking about people who've had work done to cover up scars etc but people who do it for vanity reasons. It just doesn't really work so I don't get why people do it.
My guess is that when they do look better as a result we just don't notice anything was done at all. I just feel it's odd that someone of his stature and accomplishments should feel it necessary, but I guess that's the world we live in.
Sandra Bullock has done well I think. She looks amazing for her age and I doubt it's all natural.
Beg to differ.It's never Dave or Sandra from down the road.
That's a cop-out!
1966... all americans under 25It's never Dave or Sandra from down the road.
therefore any americans born between 1941 and 1966... so anybody who is between 55 and 80... whts that 20% of the popultion?... so plenty of Daves and Sandras

To be fair they should probably make more awards like that as time person of the year has such luminaries as Hitler, Stalin and Ayatollah Khomeini
That's why this didn't bother me. Not because he's as bad as Hiter - let's give him time - but because it's not technically supposed to be a positive thing. Though it often is.
Bezos won it years ago I see
TBF Musk is much better bond Villain than Bezos so he probably deserves it based on that
Crazy how the first men on the moon didn't get a look in.
I guess because they gave it to the crew of Apollo 8 in 1968 for orbiting the moon
so they gve it to the "silent majority" of Americans instead
that said in 1971 and 1972 they gave it to Nixon so lets just assume that the guys and gals at Time caught the LSD wave of the late 60's and rode into the 70's
Stalin got 2.1966... all americans under 25
therefore any americans born between 1941 and 1966... so anybody who is between 55 and 80... whts that 20% of the popultion?... so plenty of Daves and Sandras

It does say 'for better or for worse', though I'm not sure I'd be looking for the worst person I could find to give a person of the year award to.
what an amazing poster totally "with it" as the kids say.
What a hip dude.
He may be über-rich, but the true wealth lies in his unparalleled, elite-tier pwnage.
wow that’s the 42069th time he’s pwned her this week ahahahaha
Imagine how lame you would think your son was if he came out with the shite Musk does. Think how much worse it will be on the other side of it when his kid grows up and reads tweets from his feckhead dad.
This misses the first of his replies to her, where he links to a Foxnews.com article about her. So that's how you know he's right.
At some point it is going to drop. Or else Musk is going to be the Overlord in a dystopian future. Tesla can't keep growing like it has, it's just maybe impossible to say when it'll stop.
bezos ruling the world > musk ruling the world, since those are the two options that exist.
if it makes him money bezos might do something about climate change. kill millions of slave labourers to plant trees and demolish old power plants. musk will promise carbon scrubbing and then work on finding a way to log on to twitter from mars.
Ron Wyden's plan is being attacked by Ron's son, Adam Wyden. JFC
He's fully embraced being a cnut.
To be fair, he is just replied to eternal critics like Warren or Sanders who just bark but never offer anything useful.
They suggest legislation that forces tax avoiders like Musk to pay their fair share. How is that not offering something useful?
In what aspect he is a tax avoider?
They never suggest anything useful. They just criticize and play populism.
He's definitely a tax avoider. Whether he's a tax evader is harder to say.
In any case, saying that Warren and Sanders "just criticize and play populism" is honestly absurd. Sanders in particular has a decades long career as a politician. The fact that he doesn't have the support to enact his agenda in no way means that he's not allowed to promote that agenda.
It's telling that you're choosing that obviously childish and inane tweet to defend Musk. Is there anything he could do that you wouldn't back up?
He is not though. Despite that this belief from some people that people should pay taxes in unrealized gains.
Here is the list of countries who make (or have made in the past) people pay taxes in unrealized gains, to the best of my knowledge is:
Yes, that is right. No country ever has done so. So you cannot be a tax avoider or evader or whatever, for not paying taxes that well, no country has ever asked to pay. The entire point of unrealized gains is that they are, how to say it, unrealized.
When he sells stocks, like he did this month, he pays taxes, like everyone else. The capital tax rate in the US is as far as I know, 10-25%, so considering that he sold 7b worth of Tesla stock, he is now gonna pay 700m-1.75B in taxes. And rightly so. Realized gains and all that.

Sanders is a dogshit politician with a cult following from wannabe communists who grew up to get all the benefits of capitalism. A lifetime career politician who didn't have any other job in his life, was always on the state's payroll, and achieved precisely nothing (to be fair, he sponsored a law to change the name of a post). A populist who never gives any plan that has even a tiny chance to get pass into law and to actually help people. And Warren is not much better.
---
Yes, there are plenty of things that I wouldn't defend Musk. He is a twat, and a big one to that. He is also right for trolling those two useless politicians. And with his work at Tesla and essentially forcing the entire car industry to go electric, he has done a more net positive for humankind than those two useless politicians can ever hope to do.
All time classic.
