@averagejoe1 saidyet he didn't.
This morning, Elon musk, just sent the largest rocket in history into the sky. Day after day launching new innovation for the future of America. But I think we need to tell him he cannot be so rich. What do y’all think. Is he a menace? Should we get serious about what other people have?
did he design the rocket? did he invent the fuel? did he build a single component? did he write a single line of code?
(Considering how he is running Twitter into the ground, it's a good thing he abstained from involving himself directly)
All he did was supply some money. Some of it. 5 billion dollars spread across Tesla and SpaceX were supplied by tax payers. American tax payers.
Yet here you are, an ignoramus ready to jerk him off, blow some air up his colon, maybe even sing him a hymn.
@zahlanzi saidHey Zahlanzi, this is AvGuy1. Boo! So you are ready to put down frontiersmen, men who will take a chance for the advancement of the future. Not a lot of that going on in Romania. Hey Zahlanzi , would you have said all of the same crap that you just wrote (really nasty) about Charles Lindbergh? There’s absolutely no difference. Uhoh, I have just confused you. For the rest of the day you will be chewing on your pillow.

Have you gotten your government allotment today? I think it is on Thursdays, check that calendar on your refrigerator with the big X on the big day.
@averagejoe1 saidIt went into the sky for about two minutes and then crashed into the sea.

@AverageJoe1
OK, here's the low-down. My very good buddy, Elon, knows he has too much money and it's not good for him. You have no idea, the nightmares of eminent people ... He figures giving his money to some charity is a waste -- it'll just end up in the numbered Swiss bank account of some shothole country's dictator, and that's no improvement over him keeping his money. Blowing up humongous rockets is a great fireworks show for the public, but you can't keep doing that every week; it loses its shine after the third or fourth blamo, ya know. Buying up companies and running them into the ground was a great PR stunt, but you can't do that every week either -- it's gotta be something new, something that grabs the attention like a pit bull. Running for president, self-financed? Naw, somebody else did that already: anybody remember Ross Perot? So I suggested he buy Iceland. Yeah, Iceland. Actually, the Vikings named it "Iceland" so people would think it's bloody cold and not go there, and they named Greenland "Greenland", which is mostly covered by ice, so people would think Greenland was the nicer place. Pretty smart, huh? The world needs more people, so Elon's gunna buy Iceland and turn it onto a free-sex breeding ground; polyamourous marriages will be not only legal, but mandatory. Any family with over four children will receive a guaranteed income, even if they don't work. Immigration requires a certificate of fertility; if you can present a certificate of fertility, he'll pay for your move to Iceland and finance your log cabin there at a very reasonable mortgage rate. Oh, and he said he'd throw in a plow for free.
@no1marauder saidThis was the trap I was setting for Zahlanzi! Oh well.
It went into the sky for about two minutes and then crashed into the sea.
Yes it did but hailed as a success…, this thing is as new, as was the Wright brothers plane, and of course they crashed a few times before we have a Delta.
They actually surmised the situation as being risky. You have to start somewhere in my man.
It is a shame that somethings so wonderful can be put down by people such as you laughing at the crash into the sea. You peons do not realize what the big guys with all the money are doing for our world. Very small thinkers.
@averagejoe1 saidYes, because exploding rockets are always a success.

No Republicans, I'll bet. "Ummm, let that guy go first."
@averagejoe1 saidI'm aware that bootlickers like yourself think rich folks are responsible for everything good in the world and that average workers and their families are pathetic losers.

@suzianne saidHere is a real brain teaser just for you. Risk and Reward. You ought to look it up. Golly, do you think another may explode? Will he run around like a chicken with his head cut off?? The man is not unlike all the other geniuses, who risked everything to help '"The People", such as Edison, Henry Ford.

Musk isn't inventing any rockets.
BTW, the FAA is grounding SpaceX rockets until a thorough safety review is undertaken.

@averagejoe1 saidAnd he's only five or six decades behind NASA

@moonbus saidEveryone, do you note in his last several sentences, it is always about free stuff? A huge tell on the part of Moonbus, I will GUARANTEE that Moonbus is all wrapped up in a life of free money, socialist city.
