We should be lauding Elon Musk for dispelling the notion that the wealthy have any inherent superiority to anyone else. He keeps proving it over and over and over.

This is the same guy who loves Iain Banks' Culture novels while somehow remaining oblivious to their strongly leftist and anti-capitalist stance, and just sees "cool spaceships go pew pew". He's a complete moron.
