The rich are Musk; Trump; Thiel. And everytime they speak (or get a new passport), it supposedly shakes the foundations of the earth and requires the death of a new chicken so we can read the entrails and discern the meaning (or rush to any number of pundits who consider themselve heir to the Delphic Oracle to explain what was said in plain words in ever more cryptic ones, the better to show us their "wisdom").Elon Musk has very quickly turned into a Russian propaganda mouthpiece.

I guess nobody cares what the poor have to say because there are so many of them, and so few ultra-rich seeking microphones or Twitter notoriety.
Elon Musk has: built a car that is the most recalled in American history (you could look it up); proposed traveling to Mars (he got bored and quit talking about that); drilling a big hole under Los Angeles to transport a dozen people at once, thus relieving the traffic problem in one of the largest cities in the country (again, bored; walked away); tried to buy Twitter, then decided he was bored (or more likely, couldn't afford it, as his financing would destroy the platform financially in a matter of months); sent a bunch of superfluous satellites into orbit to be used for free, decided that wasn't really a business model, demanded payment, reneged on that demand when it didn't make him look good; ruined the lives of poor people in South Texas near his launch site because...poor people, who cares, right? And now has risen to new heights as the Voice of Putin on Twitter.
Yeah, I wanna know what books he recommends I read. Because I don't believe the guy reads. Or maybe it's a reading comprehension problem.
Trump inherited his money, proceeded to burn through it like a drunk sailor on shore leave, lives entirely on debt he can't pay and banks can't afford to write off, was a reality TV star because as a "billionaire" he needed the money; parlayed that into a gig as POTUS; is widely credited with nearly destroying democracy; did destroy a fake university (closed as a scam); a casino; a football team; several real estate ventures; and accomplished absolutely nothing he promised to as POTUS. Also won the trifecta of losing the House, and the Senate, and the White House for his party. A party so rotten and eaten away the only thing that keeps is functioning is the handful of people who think Trump is the Second Coming of Jeebus. But with money this time.
Thiel? He wants Malta citizenship so he has someplace to go when the US collapses because it won't elect his candidates.
Yeah, it makes no sense to listen to non-rich white men, does it? Especially ones who don't pontificate on Twitter or the intertoobs or on podcasts.
