We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

The Democrats have them hooked on social programs and blaming the rich for their woes. Elon is not rich because someone else is poor. It is a common trope the Democrats throw out that sounds good, but is false.
I have no interest in wealth distribution. If you want to make more, learn a skill that makes you more available. Taking it from me and giving it to someone else isn't the way to do it.
Yet the Democrats have never done anything to correct Walmart's behavior.
They don’t have a PhD. They have a doctorate in physical therapy. PhD is a research degree. Not the same thing thing.
The government continually prints more money making each dollar worth less. As such Elons billions is from other rich people who have invested. It didn’t come out of a poor persons pocket.
That’s why Elon being rich doesn’t impact what you have. What impacts what you have is what do you do with your money.
