Pretty much. Musk is worse than Steve Jobs. Jobs at least didnt pretend he invented anything, unlike Musk.He was already from a rich family(owned emerald mine in South Africa) and his first successful start up, he started with his brother and a bunch of other people in the late 90's, that was bought out for a lot of money during the 90s crazy tech boom. After that he used like half his new fortune (like 10 mill) and started X.com a online banking company. Peter Thiel's company bought out X.com, & part of the agreement was Elon wanted to be CEO. Thats what ended up being Paypal. But Elon was so bad at being CEO, the board fired him when he left on his honeymoon, cuz he was about to run the company into the ground. Then they made Peter Thiel the CEO, he turned paypal around & it got sold for over a billion dollars.I get lost in the shuffle with the amount of information or misinformation that flows through everyone’s brain but I thought Musk has been considered one of the greatest innovators of our time. Has this been all a lie?

He then used some of that money to invest in Tesla, a company that already existed. Then he wanted to be CEO and call himself the founder of that company, the founders said no, so he used his money and influence to kick them out of their own company. He's been lying and telling everyone he was the founder of Tesla & never wanted to be CEO, ever since.
In this country if you are white and from a rich family, you can literally fail up in life. You either have your family constantly pay to bail out your bad ideas, or just throw money every where till it sticks somewhere and you hang on to other peoples coat tails to the top.
Thats why I asked that other poster what he was the GOAT of, but he refused to answer because he couldnt answer.

Automotive recalls always gets press & just about every manufacturer has them. Its natural Ford might have more, because they sell more cars than Tesla.Wait so Ford has more recalls than Tesla but it's never "front page news"?
