Well, if dropbox can exist without those 500 employees, then it’s logical. You don’t judge success of a business by how many people it employs

Tesla and Elon are one of the reasons why I don’t but individual stocks but I rather get indices… It’s just the lack of consistency and the fact a single person can make you lose money…

I do not really see why this is bad. If they can exist with 10% less, why not.

If someone says, “I support this because I am conservative,” you actually mean, “I support this because I am a cock.”

then you should resign

“God doesn’t make mistakes.” This has to be the best argument I have ever seen. Just wow… Can’t god also solve the 3x+1 problem? Would be useful.

Perspective of a European: Main problem of the USA are “pet-eating” Haitians lol… Politics here sucks but still… could be worse…

That’s literally anti-black black guy lol

Quite a reasonable choice considering china’s actions…

The fact you think the product sucks does not mean it’s not good for many other people.

For example, I have Framework Laptop and I really think surface laptops suck due to how unrepairable they are. However, that does not mean that everyone cares about their repairbility…

if a product sucks, it won’t be profitable

yeah, competition is basically they key to the society

Whilst harris is closer to marx than trump, she is still in safe distance from communism.

I think she made the correct decision. Banning fossil fuels is not realistic.

First of all, you said regular people cannot benefit from companies’ growth, which is clearly false, because as per my previous reply, you can easily buy their stocks and become one of the shareholders. They even pay you dividends and your wealth grows.

Second issue you mentioned can be easily fixed by having competition in the market. When there are more companies, they have to improve conditions for workers, otherwise they will end up working for the competition. If no company in the market does it, thanks to capitalism you can start you own, offer the best conditions for your employees and they will come to you from the competition. Last but not least, whilst I agree lowering taxes does not necessarily mean rising people’s wages, it at least motivates people to start their own company (which creates more competition and that’s what we want). And yes, people who run the company are equally as important as the workers. It’s literally their responsibility to make decisions regarding the company’s direction. If you have a terrible management, the company goes bankrupt and workers, just like the people who run the company, lose their incomes.

With last statement I agree, US has the space to invest into free medicare, however at the cost of having less influence over the world.

yeah but cost of the studies is a fraction of what he made

There is quite a difference between democracy and socialism. For example, while democracy did not work in France, there were several other countries that have proven democracy works. For example, Greece, Rome, or even United States. On the contrary, socialism has been in many countries and failed every single time, no matter the situation. Countries of Warsaw pact tried it and 30 years after it collapsed, the quality of life in these countries is still worse compared to the Western Europe. Similar with countries such as Israel, India, Great Britain, North Korea and many more that have tried socialist tendencies but eventually returned to capitalist economies.

Same for capitalism, there have been countries that became quite successful thanks to it such as Switzerland, Singapore or Ireland.

Now let them argue i guess

Time to stop working for these…

Elon actually says he hasn’t inherited money from parents and had quite terrible relationships with them.
