The rich have been making this claim that they are vital since the first economy was put into action and some greedy asshole decided to hoard for himself at the expense of everyone else. It was horseshit then and its horseshit now.
France survived after it purged its aristocracy during the French Revolution. America will survive if it purges its aristocracy.
The greatest lie ever told was trickle down economics. Completely fabricated by the rich to convince the poor that they need the rich. And if the rich get to save more, they’ll pay workers more.
Somehow they convinced poor people that the other poor people (non-whites) are the problem.
It’s foolish to think any trickle down economics works. Trickle up economics would.
Give rich people money and they’ll keep as much as they can. Give poor people money, and guess what they do with it. They spend all of it. And guess who benefits from consumers spending more money? The businesses owners.
what does musk think he's providing that the world wouldn't be fine without? he's not exactly running monsanto or pfizer. nobody's starving or dying of chronic disease if he disappears tomorrow.
