The Makers Versus Takers: Why Elon Musk Represents Innovation While Elizabeth Warren Embodies Government Overreach

[00:00] The world is filled with

[00:01] makers and takers.

[00:03] I present to you the Cybertruck.

[00:06] Makers create cool products like Teslas.

[00:10] Some makers get rich.

[00:11] Elon Musk is now the

[00:13] richest person in the world.

[00:14] The takers are often politicians.

[00:17] We must substantially increase this tax.

[00:20] Politicians take other people's money

[00:23] and spend it the way they want.

[00:25] That's a lot of money

[00:27] and I want to make sure

[00:28] it's there to hit on the climate crisis.

[00:30] Elizabeth Warren and Elon Musk

[00:32] may be the best examples of

[00:34] maker and taker.

[00:36] It is time for a wealth tax.

[00:38] She's one of the big takers.

[00:40] We're going to hold

[00:41] the big guys accountable.

[00:43] The person whose wealth

[00:44] she most wants to take

[00:46] is Elon Musk.

[00:47] How much did Elon Musk pay that year?

[00:49] We actually saw his taxes that year

[00:52] and the answer is he paid zero.

[00:54] Zero was true one year

[00:56] because Musk didn't

[00:57] realize income that year.

[00:59] But at the time Warren said that,

[01:01] Musk had to pay the government

[01:03] $12 billion.

[01:05] More tax than anyone has paid in history.

[01:08] Elon Musk is set to pay

[01:10] the single largest tax bill ever.

[01:12] Warren wanted Musk

[01:13] to give the government

[01:14] more than $12 billion?

[01:16] 3, 2, 1...

[01:18] [Blast off]

[01:21] Musk does things that

[01:23] government is unable to do.

[01:25] He invented the world's best rockets.

[01:27] NASA's given up building spaceships itself.

[01:31] Even the bureaucrats understand

[01:33] government workers can't do it.

[01:35] NASA turns to the private sector.

[01:37] America has launched.

[01:40] Musk sent astronauts into orbit.

[01:42] Something NASA hasn't done

[01:43] for nine years.

[01:45] The new era of American space flight.

[01:47] And with it,

[01:48] the ambitions of a new generation

[01:49] continuing the dream.

[01:51] Musk lowered the cost of

[01:52] nearly every component

[01:53] of space flight.

[01:55] Door latches Nasa uses

[01:57] cost $1,500.

[02:00] Musk's team modified a latch

[02:02] from bathroom stalls

[02:03] and built that part for $30.

[02:06] Most significantly,

[02:08] Musk was:

[02:09] The first to develop reusable rockets,

[02:11] slashing costs.

[02:12] Government never even tried that.

[02:15] Reuse the rocket,

[02:17] say a thousand times,

[02:19] then that that would make

[02:20] the capital cost of the rocket per launch

[02:23] only about $50,000.

[02:24] Why didn't NASA do that?

[02:26] Because in government,

[02:27] people do what they've always done.

[02:30] And lowering costs isn't a priority

[02:32] because they're spending

[02:33] other people's money.

[02:35] NASA says it's going to spend

[02:36] $840,000 a year on upkeep

[02:38] on a test stand

[02:40] that won't be used.

[02:41] Starlink deploy confirmed.

[02:43] Musk also created Starlink,

[02:45] satellites that provide

[02:47] low-cost internet service.

[02:49] He launched so many that

[02:50] after just four years:

[02:52] Starlink satellites account for

[02:53] the majority of all the world's

[02:55] active satellites.

[02:56] Musk’s satellites give more poor people

[02:58] access to the internet

[03:00] than any government ever has.

[03:02] Musk made the money

[03:03] that allows him to do that,

[03:05] mostly creating cars that people love.

[03:08] First, it was America's bestselling electric car

[03:10] and then it became the bestselling luxury car.

[03:12] So musk creates cool new things

[03:15] and more than a 100,000 jobs,

[03:17] but the attention-seeking politician

[03:19] demands government investigate him

[03:21] for wrongdoing.

[03:22] Senator Elizabeth Warren

[03:23] sending a letter to the SEC

[03:25] to investigate Tesla.

[03:27] Investigate Tesla for not properly

[03:29] representing shareholders.

[03:31] Seems ridiculous given that:

[03:33] Tesla became the most valuable

[03:35] auto company in the world.

[03:36] Warren also complained that Musk

[03:39] is now the CEO of another company.

[03:41] The richest man in the world

[03:42] has taken control of Twitter.

[03:44] Musk bought Twitter after

[03:45] Twitter censored political views.

[03:48] Spent $44 billion on Twitter.

[03:51] Man, that was expensive.

[03:52] So far, Musk is losing money on Twitter.

[03:55] What do you think it was actually worth?

[03:58] Everything.

[03:58] Because he's protecting open debate.

[04:01] I think you did humanity an immense service.

[04:05] I agree.

[04:06] Once Musk fired Twitter censors,

[04:09] there are more ideas

[04:10] expressed on Twitter now.

[04:13] Also:

[04:13] Imagine the joy of connecting

[04:15] with your loved ones.

[04:16] Musk, with his own money,

[04:18] is trying to help paralyzed people

[04:19] do things like use phones.

[04:22] Using only your thoughts.

[04:24] This is made possible by placing

[04:26] a small cosmetically invisible implant

[04:28] in a part of your brain

[04:29] that plans movements.

[04:31] What musk has created is amazing.

[04:34] If you're against Musk,

[04:35] you're essentially the villain.

[04:37] Senator Warren is that villain.

[04:39] Greedy corporate landlords.

[04:41] Corporate greed is on a joy ride.

[04:43] Warren attacks people who create wealth.

[04:46] Greedy corporations.

[04:48] Of course corporations are greedy.

[04:50] Greed works.

[04:51] Greed motivates some people to try harder.

[04:54] But under free markets,

[04:56] the greedy can only satisfy

[04:57] that greed pleasing customers.

[05:00] They can't force anyone to pay.

[05:03] Unlike politicians.

[05:04] More taxation of the billionaires.

[05:07] In addition, Warren demands

[05:08] government regulate this,

[05:10] and regulate that.

[05:11] Regulate this and that.

[05:13] The ship catapults off the ground

[05:14] into the air.

[05:15] It's good the Wright brothers

[05:16] designed airplanes before

[05:18] Warren was around.

[05:19] For the first flight on record.

[05:21] Our world needs fewer Elizabeth Warrens.

[05:24] I am angry.

[05:25] And more Elon Musks.

[05:27] [Cheering]

[05:29] Do you see them both light up?

[05:32] What?

[05:33] Look at that.

[05:35] That's unreal.

[05:38] [Swoosh]

[05:40] I hope you're a maker and not a taker.
