The Tesla Board of Directors just gave Elon Musk a pay package of One Trillion Dollars. What???? Who can even understand how much money that is?
Here’s one way. One Trillion Dollars is more than the GDP (Gross Domestic Product), the entire national economy, of Belgium, more than the GDP of Ireland, more than Sweden and Argentina and Austria and Norway and Denmark and South Africa and Portugal and Egypt and Chile. More than the GDP of over 170 countries in the world. If Musk was his own country, he would rank number 22 in the entire world.
If there is anything that shows the insanity of this capitalist system, it would be one man having more money than an entire country. And it shows another good reason to get rid of this system.
