He isn't wrong.
The SEC is a toothless.
All the people who are talented at the regulation get pulled into the private industry for 10x the pay.
They really only act on problems after-the-fact and typically never intervene while something illegal is happening. Most of the punishments are a fine which to wall street is essentially "the cost of doing business".
If the SEC actually had power and was resistant to influence and bribery then we would see the makers of the 2008 recession in jail...

And so much more! Apparently his software was the precursor to NASDAQ. Also you'll note that he was for a time on the board of the National Association of Securities Dealers, you know, setting all the rules that all of the exchanges follow (such as t+2, collateral requirements, auditing practices, etc). When he was investigated by the SEC, he had this to say:
"I was astonished. They never even looked at my stock records. If investigators had checked with The Depository Trust Company, a central securities depository, it would've been easy for them to see. If you're looking at a Ponzi scheme, it's the first thing you do.[66]"

93 points

Rather than brokerages sending your order to the exchange, they give it to some big boys on Wallstreet who promise to give you the same price or better as the exchange. This allows them to buy or sell various stocks without moving market prices, because the market makers never see their trades. They also get to play market makers themselves with narrower margins but less commitment. So it plausibly works the way it is supposed to work, legally. The very popular, practically mainstream, conspiracy theory promoted by everyone from the algotraders on Reddit to Congress, is that they are front running your orders illegally because the fox is in charge of watching the henhouse.

You have cause and effect backwards
The state's political power attracts special interests, and then backroom (or hell, even front room) deals take place that secure certain tax funded politicians' political power. The MIC is a perfect example. Each huge contractor gets a massive slice of the military budget pie, and that pie is secured by tax funded politicians that people believe are looking out for the gReAtEr GoOd or the "pUbLiC's IntErEsTs"
Cause: central, state power and a tax system that sucks trillions out of the economy so politicians can spend it on pet special interest government programs and contracts
Effect: special interests that understand how that game works so lobby those politicians in order to gain crony advantages and secure government contracts
But have no doubt: centralized power is the cause, not the effect

Some context:
Tesla CEO Elon Musk quipped back at The Washington Postâs request for comment regarding an article about his future with the company, telling a reporter to give his âregards to your puppet master.â
The Postâs piece wondered if Tesla can ârun on Autopilotâ and declared that âMusk moved to Texas and embraced celebrity.â The article elaborated on âcriticsâ who have concerns that Muskâs schedule and public personality âare beginning to show in the car company he runs.â
The company in question, Tesla, didnât respond to The Postâs request for comment, the article notes. Musk, however, did â with just one sentence presumably aimed at The Postâs owner, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.
âGive my regards to your puppet master,â Musk responded after a request for comment from the newspaper.
âTesla did not respond to repeated requests for comment. In response to emails seeking comment, Musk replied only: âGive my regards to your puppet master.â â Josh Dawsey (@jdawsey1) February 23, 2021
Bezos owns The Post, as noted in the article, and is mentioned as one of the examples of the potential for giant companies to stumble amid change. The Post noted that Apple CEO Steve Jobsâ 2011 death âprompted what some view as a loss of innovation at the tech giant.â
âAmazon will soon face the transition of founder and chief executive Jeff Bezos to executive chairman, testing the culture heâs instilled. (Bezos owns The Washington Post),â the article added before pointing out some of Muskâs political comments throughout the global pandemic.
âHe knows whatever he says, people do and heâs taking advantage of it,â one anonymous employee reportedly said of Musk, according to The Post.
The worker reportedly recalled telling a co-worker that Musk âdoesnât care about youâ and will âruin you,â the piece also noted.

Bezos, who owns the Post, can also own other things aside from the Post, which, as we established, he already owns.

Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Jeff Bezos the Post owner? I thought not. It's not a story the Washington Post would tell you. It's a Post legend. Jeff Bezos was an owner of the Post, so powerful and so wise he could use the Post to influence the editors to create news about people not owning the Post. He had such a knowledge of owning the Post that he could even keep the ones he cared about from owning the Post. The dark side of the Post is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unpostable. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his ownership of the Post, which eventually, of course, he didn't, because Bezos owns the Post and will always own the Post. Unfortunately, he taught Elon Musk everything he knew, then he posted an eggplant emoji while Bezos slept. Ironic... he could save others from owning the Post, but not himself.

I will start by saying that I am NOT a Musk fanboy. I think he has abhorrent views and practices on labor, and that alone is enough for me to not like him as a person. With that said, scientists aren't necessarily great at management, and often the opposite is true- they're terrible at organizing, collaborating, and sometimes you really have to shake them to get them out of their box. Musk's value comes from his vision for his company, and his ability to give direction and guide teams. That company simply wouldn't be what it is without him or someone like him. So, I don't think he's a good person, and I don't think he's really special, but I am also willing to overlook these things because he's really pushing things in a direction that is going to benefit both humans and the "natural" world. And we needed those technologies decades ago, so at this point it's "whatever gets us there".

This. There wouldn't be Apple without Steve Jobs and there wouldn't be Tesla, nor SpaceX, likely not even PayPal without Elon Musk. Those scientists and engineers didn't magically materialize around them from thin air. Brilliant minds have always been here, but for large projects such as these you need an individual with a vision, self-drive to act upon it and make enough money for a company to survive in the process at least. And people like these are few and far between for some reason. They are deservedly in the spotlight, because they are leaders that made those projects a reality. Yes, those scientists and engineers did the vast majority of the "manual labor", but they wouldn't do it on their own, if somebody didn't brought them together, gave them a common direction and paid them for their work.
I'm an engineer, but I don't understand this devaluing of leadership and management in the company that some people do, as if it is somehow less important. I'm talking about real management and leadership of course, not a human centipede of kinder-management sticking from the asses of their superiors in the corporate ladder of halfway disintegrated corporations (looking at you, IBM).

17 points

Tesla abandoned the idea of battery swapping long ago. It's a dead-end design given current battery technology. The added cost, complexity and weight of making battery packs swappable goes against their current goal of making them cheaper, lighter and higher density. They are going to make their battery packs structural in the future, which is the polar opposite of swapping batteries design. Swapping batteries is also wasteful and expensive, the more EV relies on swapping batteries than charging, the more spare batteries we need than cars on the market. How to increase battery production to match the growing EV market is already a challenge as is. A tanker of gasoline is like what, $20k? That's like only 4 or 5 spare EV batteries. How many can an average battery swapping station afford to stock to make a sustainable business? Making battery swappable might also encourage people to drain the battery as close to zero as they can before swapping it, depending on how the fee is calculated, which is not good for the longevity of the battery.

I said almost exactly this on a post that made it to r/enoughMuskspam and people argued and argued about how they didnât see my point, and literally reported me for hate speech. Multiple people chiming in like âIâm autistic and my social skills are fine so you can fuck right off.â I fucking hate most of Reddit. Thank God for WSB

"Iâm autistic and my social skills are fine so you can fuck right off"
And the retard couldn't see the irony in that? I'm starting to doubt his claims.

He's a super intelligent dude. He's recognized the faults of gasoline and capitalized on the electric-only aspect of cars through a time that really didn't give it any credit. Also the co founder of PayPal. Also bought the solar roof company and started the boring company, all of which have a long-term goal to help mankind off its ass from relying on fossil fuels all the time.
He's no messiah, he's driven a hard lifestyle in his compan(y/ies) for his employees, but he's also a billionaire who's more relatable to the common man rather than appear as this untouchable enigma many billionaires tend to be.
His personality takes a specific type of person to like it and most definitely isn't an appeal-to-all kind of guy, but he's definitely shown who he is just by his media, actions and appearance.
On one hand, I love the dude for being him. On the other, I really don't like how he treats his employees and some things he does. But I'm probably leaning towards the "like and appreciate" more than negative because of the aforementioned reasons
