If there's another Elon Musk out there, I promise you VCs are throwing money at him.

  This is our real difference, I have no such optimism. I believe there are probably hundreds of completely unknown Elon Musks in america right now, we've just done a horrible job at cultivating and finding human capital in our own country.

    And I believe that for every Elon Musk in the United States there are 10 that are ready to come to the United States. I also don't believe that capital is the sole limiting factor in finding these folks.

      I guess I don't care that much what the limiting factor is. Finding the ones that exist in our own country is more important than importing cheap ones. I'll admit to having nationalistic tendencies though, we oughtta take care of our own Elons before we start worrying about the ones in other countries.
