“I don’t think he’s doing it for the money,” Sununu said

I actually agree. He’s doing it for the power. The money is just a bonus

The richest man in the world didn’t become so via altruism and charity.

He has interests and those definitely conflict.

Him being too wealthy to have conflicts of interest suggests that he’s comfortable where he’s at financially, and isn’t trying to further enrich himself through government channels. But we’ve all seen how capitalism works and it has zero ceiling. It continues to amass wealth regardless of anything, and Musk is doing the same.

This strikes me as just another bootlicker yelling “pick me!” from the sidelines.

He has many private interests that are very directly affected by the government, the most egregious one being fucking spacex.

I have learned, there are people who make alot of money, who aren’t greedy. I have also learned you almost never hear about them because they have either a. spent all their wealth or b. don’t make the news because they aren’t greedy and psychotic.

This is to say, if they have money, and you are hearing about them on the news, chances are they are greedy. No amount of tangible or intangible wealth will be enough for people like him, take Rockefeller for example.
