Back in the day, the term "snake oil salesman" was used and it is as fresh today as it always was.
- netsharc 9mo agoWe should update that term to "driverless car salesman"...
- UltraSane 9mo agoHow about just "Elon Musk"
- technothrasher 9mo agoBack in the day, snake oil salesmen weren't seen as frauds (the actual health benefits of snake oil, or lack thereof, is another discussion). It wasn't until after 1916, when Stanley's Snake Oil was discovered to not actually contain any snake oil, that the term came to be associated with fraudulent selling.
