didn't exist then and businesses literally owned politics. After being reined in for decades, Reagan began the slow dissolution of those reins. It's time to radically change that.

My point was only that huge money or power isn't guaranteed forever.

Think of "Ozymandius", the Roman Empire, British Empire, Bernie Madoff, The Vanderbilts, Charles M Schwab who died penniless after losing billion$, Eike Batista, Sam Bankman-Fried (the hilarious appropriateness of his combo name always makes me laugh about the sudden evaporation of his $26B fortune), and so many more once ultra-wealthy or incredibly powerful entities.

Vast sums of Elon's money and power exist ONLY because our government gives him contracts. Without them, just wait to see him deflate. Especially if he's convicted.
