Good for him doing this, but how about as a country we solve this problem? I thought this was the richest most advanced country on the face of Earth ever? We can't even provide water that doesn't give you cancer or mental disabilities? Come on.
Musk might be a nutjob and I'm already seeing the day where he goes completely bonkers, but sometimes that guy just gets shit done where others would talk and talk and talk. I wonder how he'll be remembered in a hundred years.
The most advanced... probably not, not anymore. Japan is far ahead of us in terms of quality of manufacturing, many European countries are far ahead of us in terms of health care and quality of life. We are probably still the most business friendly country though.
