Elon Musk

[TimeISmoney]

And definitely very common, here, the farm workers in the US, etc...
Yet not exactly h1b visas still.
And in Australia, i do not believe these backpackers are even counted in the 600,000 or so new migrants a year we are getting.
Could be wrong but as they mostly leave after 2y or so, not counted

Some of them use it as a pathway to enter Australia, but I do recall them saying that part of the work visa was to do so many years in the countryside doing crap jobs and then they were allowed to take on some city jobs.

I don't believe in everything he does, but this is the sort of outside the box thinking that makes me admire Musk.
While the LA fire department holds press conferences, Gavin Newsome starts enquiries, Musk goes out and uses his own companies money to solve a problem.
Highly unlikely Newsome and his entourage will thank Musk for his work.

I see more and more people are transferring their TDS to MDS.
Before everybody starts saying he is a fascist, dictator, Nazi (xxx- fill in your own derogatory nomenclature),
Just have a think about his achievements.
Not my summary, but it seems relevant.

“The World Has Never Seen Anyone Like Elon Musk.
”Fixing the Government,
“If not Elon Musk, then who?
- The man launches over 90% of the world's tonnage into outer space each year
- He owns the first new car company to start from scratch and obtain profitability in over a hundred years
- He has pioneered full self-driving
- He employs over 100,000 people
- He launches a rocket into orbit every 2 1/2 days
- SpaceX has created access to low cost broadband internet to anywhere in the world because we are very spoiled in the west (Most of the world does not have cable that runs to their homes like we do in the west)
- He has literally reduced the cost of going into space x10 compared to what the federal government was doing with NASA showing extreme efficiency (And he did so as a private in the private sector, which no one thought was possible before)
- He started X AI only a year ago, and it's already valued at $78 billion and is the most advanced AI in the world connecting more Nvidia GPUs than anyone previously thought possible (Again, doing something that no one previously thought possible and he did all of this in about a sixth of a time that it took any of the magnificent seven or leading tech AI companies. So again, extreme efficiency)
- Hebought Twitter, and renamed it Xwhen it was valued at 44 billion-
- He cut 80% of the X workforce and increased gross margins by 4x in profitability. Profitability by 2.5x
- This doesn't even touch Neuralink, which is valued at 8 billion
- The boring company, which is valued at 7 billion
- Tesla robots or the Hyperloop at Neuralink-
- He's literally working to cure blindness, paralysis and working to allow communication with people who were previously unable to communicate-
The world has never seen anyone like Elon Musk. I genuinely feel bad for those who are not intelligent enough to appreciate Elon Musk and what he's doing for society because accomplishing just one of the things that he's accomplished in a lifetime would far exceed everyone else on the face of this earth. And since it's so easy, why don't you do it all?So again, if not Elon, then who?”

The more I watch this people, to more I think we can just boil it down to "D".

We have a couple here on the forum, just deranged on any number of issues, so long as it is supports a certain ideology.

Government is not a business!

There is no transparency with Musks actions

Musk has no regard for social responsibility his destruction of X’s value case in point

There is no structure or oversight of Musk’s actions again government is not a business it belongs to the people not Trump not Musk.

Regan and Clinton both ran similar reductions of government both were measured and transparent

I sometimes wonder how Elon finds the time to do everything that he does. He is a busy lad with his own investments and now he has taken on DOGE.

@over9k I thought that Mr Musk is already the "unofficial" POTUS while "King" Trumpet just keeps blowing on his horn.

@Garpal Gumnut Just been a bit about POTUS Musk.
He is calling for retired air traffic controllers to apply or their old jobs.
A bit weird when the minimum age for controllers is 31 and the maximum is 56.
Has the panic started to set in now that he has cleaned out thousands of jobs in the name of cost savings???
