You have Tesla stock to sell also?

It isn't a money problem, it never has been. It has always been a power, and a control problem.

The will has never been there.

Don't look for them to seriously respond to Musk's challenge, for they were never really serious. They don't want to free people, anymore than they want folks to be able to not worry about not paying rent or their mortgage.

The UN is as corrupt as every national government of the world is.

I did see this about world hunger.

The UN?

Jesus Christ they haven't been worth a shit in decades. Why they even exist is beyond me. They are like a union, they only exist because they fooled a bunch of people into giving them money because they give off the impression they are somehow needed.

The US needs the UN to legitimize America's wars. Just because the UN refuses on rare occasions doesn't mean that the US will every quit the UN.

The UNSC members' power to veto has saved countless lives from US bombing. It could have even prevented a nuclear war, caused by US actions against Russia's security and further encroachment on Russia's borders.

AWKWARD MOMENT: Biden Gets WAY Too Close to Pre-School Children (VIDEO) - Civil Deadline

What is it with Joe Biden not being able to keep his hand to himself or him ALWAYS doing something pervy with children and women? This guy seriously knows no personal boundaries. I remember one of the first times that I saw him doing this was years ago when he was greeting Hillary Clinton at ...

Musk's mission is to change the world and maybe even save it (and presumably get rich while doing so)

belief created the vision, the vision would create a market, the market would create cash, and cash would create cars

you pretty much have to be delusional to think you can end world hunger, which many think Musk is!...you know who else they said that about? Jesus!

so great are the barriers to entering the car business that the last major new US carmaker to emerge that is still around today was Chrysler in 1925. Or as Musk likes to remind people, in playing the outrageous long odds he's defying, only 2 US car companies have NOT gone bankrupt: Ford...and Tesla!

Musk's big idea is that he can outperform the gas-guzzling cars, out-style them, out-tech them, save customers billions of dollars a year on gasoline, and in doing so save the world from itself

Unlike most car CEOs, Musk's philosophy of decision making flows from his California ecosystem, where it's better to make a fast, wrong choice that can be undone quickly than to waste time perfecting hypotheticals

as critic Tim Higgins wrote: "Musk's vision, enthusiasm, and determination carry Tesla, but his ego, paranoia, and pettiness threaten to undo it all...increasingly people have seen another side of him: Frazzled, stressed, worried, despairing, insecure. in short: vulnerable"

his fans and detractors can't get enough of him. Musk was the inspiration for Robert Downey Jr's portrayal of Tony Stark in Iron Man. He's prolific on twitter, arguing with government regulators, attacking short sellers betting against him, and joking with his fans about Japanese anime and even drug use.

amid the controversial figures that have emerged from Silicon Valley so far, you can't help but wonder: Is Elon Musk an underdog, an antihero, a con man, or some combination of the 3?

Musk is enthusiastic but skeptical. "Convince me you know what you're talking about", he has told the UN people. "Why won't it be twice that amount or five times that or 10 times?"

the UN doesn't have a good answer beyond their usual platitudes

 

[whitehall]

Governments never had to "prove" that American money solved their hunger problems anytime in modern history. Good old Uncle just forked over the money and hoped for the best.

He called their BS by saying he’ll give the money if they provide a detailed auditable list of how the money is spent.

Jesus Christ they haven't been worth a shit in decades. Why they even exist is beyond me. They are like a union, they only exist because they fooled a bunch of people into giving them money because they give off the impression they are somehow needed.

The UN exists to give countries a fair and peaceful platform to communicate on. Whether or not you realize it things like that help facilitate peace on a global scale.
