Elon Musk says recession is 'a good thing,' billionaires make people 'happy'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Elon Musk said in a series of tweets last week that it is “morally wrong and dumb” to use the word “billionaire” as a pejorative and that a possible recession is “a good thing” because it could affect unproductive work-from-home employees.

The comment about billionaires came after Musk, 50, opened a poll on Twitter on Friday and asked his 95.7 million followers who they trust less: politicians or billionaires. The results of the poll, which 3,399,953 people participated in, showed that 75.7% of respondents trust politicians less, while 24.3% of respondents trust billionaires less.

Who do you trust less? Real question.

In another tweet on Friday, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO said it is “morally wrong and dumb” to use the word “billionaire” as a pejorative, adding, “If the reason for it is building products that make millions of people happy.”

1. I trust on-line polls less than billionaires and politicians.

But I reckon billionaires are the ones with the biggest online bot armies.

2. Hmmm? Some billionaires aren't as smart...

as you'd think.

3. How about instead of billionaires,

we just call all of you ‘rich fucks’?
We’ll still think of ‘billionaire’ as a pejorative anyway though.
In the meantime, don’t ever consider yourself qualified to opine on morality. You aren’t.

4. Not one cell in my body cares what Elon

says or thinks about anything. His opinions are less than worthless. Libertarian asshole extraordinaire.
