He made many millionaires at Tesla. This is absolutely abhorrent mischaracterization of any billionaire, let alone Elon Musk. Wealth is not stolen from anyone, it is created from providing value to millions of people.
No one is exploiting anyone. It is at-will employment. Provides a living wage to thousands of employees to raise their families.
If wealth was stolen, then we'd not have any growth in GDP. 90% people lived in poverty in the 19th century. Capitalism improved lives of millions of people. Every single person is better off today than in 18th century.
You simply cannot become a billionaire without providing value to millions. Exceptions are inheritance and crony capitalists (often in bed with Gov).
Sergey Brin is rightfully a billionaire. He made the world better and so did pretty much any billionaire. I feel like media has been feeding people "Billionaire bad, socialism good" and people have stopped thinking for themselves.
