Bernie Sanders responded to Elon Musk's claim that he needs his vast wealth to fund interplanetary space travel.Sanders was responding to Musk's claim that"I am accumulating resources to help make life multiplanetary and extend the light of consciousness to the stars.
However, responding to the comments, Sanders tweeted that:"Space travel is an exciting idea, but right now we need to focus on Earth and create a progressive tax system so that children don't go hungry, people are not homeless and all Americans have healthcare."The progressive lawmaker was responding to Musk, one of the wealthiest people in the world, who
👏
Bcoz he couldn’t enjoy the space exploration later?
Okay bernie, sell 3 houses and pay more tax rather than blast others and tell them what to do with their money on social media BernieSanders
I hope Elon told, the quite rich himself, Sanders, to shove his opinion...
Is the Red Bernie jealous? xD
Send Bernie and his 5 friends to space
When all is said and done, we only have one Earth and one god. We should treat them both with respect!
Tell Bernie to sell one of his three house & donate it
Bernie should just worry about the mittens he'll be wearing for his next meme 😂 elonmusk to the moon 🚀
Bernie is right.....space travel is the way but without fixing earth problem we won't get to go anywhere in space before earth is inhabitable.....and ultra rich should be the one to takle the problem
He does not have the guts to invade Greta’s territory.
Like Sanders has been doing..
Not only he can’t do his own he is telling people who have done don’t?
I’m in general a fan of BernieSanders but he can eat a bag of festering dicks on this one. elonmusk SpaceX has turned a generations eyes to the stars again. Leave space alone.
Bernie must keep minding his own buisness
Just curious, does Bernie Sanders tell the US government not to send him his social security check?
It’s Bernie Sander’s job as a senator to change our tax code to make rich people to pay the “fair” share as Bernie believes.
Mr Bernie, it's his money to spend however he wants. Focus on yourself
claxtonnn
I just don't get the idea why people who worked hard on their success get penalized by paying more tax..it's not their fault that they just work harder than most people.
We can’t fix 👇
Musk is actually searching for a planet where Bernie could be made President!!!!
Sorry Bernie, you’re part of why he’s trying to escape in the first place
Bernie should pay up that tax he keeps tapping about and go back to his retirement home. Pull more people out of welfare by creating jobs and getting more people to pay taxes. About half, HALF of Americans actually pay tax. If every individual paid tax we would be in great shape
He needs to find his own focus and focus on it. Who mandates people to tell others what purpose they should embark on. Elon has done far better for Earth than any Billionaire Entrepreneur out there. Moving to the future Innovation Explore new spaces
annette_benette Din ven Bernie er efter Musk.👍
He can spend his wealth on space travel, but he should pay his due.
Musk is a HUGE disappointment. I thought he was FOR our environment? To be that smart & use it to colonize the🌜? Really? Is THAT what we should be doing now bc its too late to save🌎? Yeah, let's just FUBAR the greatest planet in our galaxy & go live on the🌛& Mars. 🖕Musk! He's
Maybe if Elon were pioneering new technology to travel the stars, but he is using 100 year old technology and having idiots drool and stan for his tax evading performance art
Bernie Sanders can create his own wealth and do with it as he please
Mr. Sanders is usually right on his assessments and conclusions about the financial and other disparities that exit within the American system. BUT, attacking Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos was just a “chicken shit, low blow!” “assumptive”, and personal “cheap shot”.
“Your old road is rapidly aging Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand!” SenSanders
fuckbernie
Bernie is a true Moran, period.
You gotta love Bernie
Elon Musk is an a**hole who didn’t care if his employees got Covid & his Dad was an a**hole as well
SirenGriffon Yaaaaaass slay qween
What he should rely focus on is desalination
I will not turn off my add-blocker, but I do have an answer, despite not being able to read the article, --- Who is Mr. Sanders to tell Mr. Musk how he should spend his money? Innovation is what has made your country what it is now; why stifle it now?
Musk doesn't spend his wealth on space travel. He swindles government subsidies and confused investors with redundant crap and ridiculous marketing.
Lol. How much does Bernie make and keep? Just wondering. He speaks like he is a martyr. 'Bernie Sanders has a net worth between $2.5 - $5 million. His net worth puts him in the top 1% of wealthiest Americans'
Invest in the people who invested in you.
Elon is successful bc he follows his passion Its no ones place 2 tell him where he should be directing that passion If SenSanders is so concerned w our wellbeing & justice 4 the world then he can start by getting padlocks removed off grocery store dumpsters & ending food gauging
His head is in the clouds...
And how much is Bernie worth? Lol making millions off others for nothing just like man bear pig I mean Al Gore lol
Lmaoooo 🤣🤣🤣 good ol bernie! Maybe if he didn’t pay tax we’d 'focus more on earth' and have less bureaucracy
He’s so wealthy he could literally do both but consciously chooses not to.
I don’t care for Bernie Sanders however I feel the same about Musk!
tell him to fovis on dogecoin 😎🤓😎
Since when did people have the right to tell others where they should spend their money. Last I checked it’s elonmusk not elonsanders. We need to stop being everyone’s dad. As long as he is paying his legal taxes due he can do whatever he wants. You don’t constrain such brains
This coming from a guy that's always been GROUNDED!!!! LMAO. Just sayin.
It’s his money soooo he can do whatever he wants. His company is worth a lot
Why not they use the already paid taxes in right places and than ask for more tax ... take your hands from the pockets of private sector off...
Who tells Bernie Sanders to focus on Diversity and Equality to avoind inequality? Change the Law
Sorry Bernie, disagree. Science will save us when you least expect it Not to mention employ millions of Americans.
None of Bernie Sanders Business he can spend his money the way he wants this is not a socialist country
Bernie, attacking Elon is counterproductive...he's actually trying to help all of humanity. BTW: I agree w/ u on most billionaires...u should spend more time pointing out that Buffet, Gates and Munger all invest and support oil and other fossil fuels. That's bad for all of us!
Sanders has no vision
I mean he sees the vision and ambition of Planet Mars we must give him a chance!
Comments like this make me happy this coward failed both presidential bids, before bending his knee to those who screwed him over. The ego and arrogance of someone to think they have the right to tell someone how they must spend their money.
Awesome, rich white old man telling others how to live their lives.
Well yeah 🤔
Bernie has no shame on telling others how to love their lives and spend their money
I do not think Bernie knows how much Space Travel benefits humanity
good
Literally we have been “focused on earth” from the beginning of human existence.. it’s probably the main reason why earth is all we know. Tell BurtNErnie to shove it.
Go Bernie!!!
This is why I love Bernie Sanders
So basically, give his money to the government which is NOTORIOUS for not getting space stuff done on time, instead of investing in his own space corporation which often gets stuff done ahead of schedule?
RyanRobinsonJ Telling other people how to spend their money: elitist attitude. Bernie is a rich guy. I won’t tell him not to have more than one house.
The government shouldn’t tell us what to do ... he thought like a fool.
Let Elon focus on space and Bernie on the Earth or may be on himself. I think that would work better.
Why? Is it because Bernie thinks it's 'more moral as it sounds'? Dang!
I totally agree with Sanders on this one
Bernie, how many jobs did you create? Do you have any innovative capabilities other than trying to force everyone to your doomed economic ways?
Who cares that old fart gonna be dead in 2-3 years
based
Does elonmusk tell him how to spend his money?
Three things a good website does for your business: 1. It attracts prospects who eventually become clients/customers. 2. It enables you to showcase your products & services - beautifully. 3. It positions you as an expert in your field. Will you like to get one? Let's talk.
.BernieSanders who never had a regular job & never created a single job & never created anything of value or what will outlive him - THAT .SenSanders - telling the Spacex/Tesla/PayPal guy what to do...
Why would anyone pay more tax than necessary? Bernie is a cute old man but he's not very logical. The govt. wastes the money they have. Why give them more to waste?
He should not pay more tax. He should continue spending his wealth on space travel.
😂😂 it’s always Easy To Distribute other’s Wealth.
Bernie Elon earned his money and can spend it anyway he wants..don't you
Tax brackets USA 1946 WWII ($×14 for today) $0+ 20% $2k+ 22% $4k+ 26% $6k+ 30% $8k+ 34% $10k+ 38% $12k+ 43% $14k+ 47% $16k+ 50% $18k+ 53% $20k+ 56% $22k+ 59% $26k+ 62% $32k+ 65% $38k+ 69% $44k+ 72% $50k+ 75% $60k+ 78% $70k+ 81% $80k +84% $90k+ 87% $100k+ 89% $150k+ 90% $200k +91%
Bernie Sanders you had more than enough time to do something useful now let the next generation do it
If all shortsighted like Bernie Sanders... all will ended with earth. Only Elon Musk with farsighted might give higher chance to extended human life ! We need young with hope not old with trouble !
'you should pay more taxes for politicians and start doing the work politicians should have been doing!'
Musk wants to build a colony on Mars with slave labor.
What he doesn’t understand is the space travel is for Earth.
The problem with saying pay more tax is the government wastes all our tax dollars!!Learn to spend more efficiently!!
That is very stupid and shortsighted.
Cuz Bernie knows a lot with a bachelors in political science from the university of Chicago, I hate when politicians try to have an opinion on things they don’t know the first thing about
elonmusk couldn’t agree more
The Starlink satellite train just got 3 miles longer.
Grandfather's discipline to grandson!
Life is not fair for the losers.
The Jester of Charles VIII, King of France, is asking Christopher Columbus not to look for India it's a lost of time...
Put em in a nursing home
Bernie should tell himself to focus on Earth & let Elon focus on space travel
And that's why Sanders can't win a presidency and Elon is one of the richest in the world. I'd prefer to listen to someone who doesn't want to tax the hell out of successful people unfairly and is innovating and inspiring others to be great!
He tells leaders how to run the state. He tells people how to spend their money. He gives money to those who create protests and havoc
Please don't listen elonmusk , and thanks for making earth better than any socialist politician
The Jester of Charles VIII, King of France, is asking Christopher Columbus not to look for India it's a lost of time...
Meanwhile NASA giving every lauch to SpaceX 😂😂 Lol
Do not go crazy bernie sanders, why are you hitting 'the cousin' because he forgot bring the cake, when he brought to the party the grandma?, readjust your mouth and rethink what you say....
Jack Ma already told him...
Elon's fave Martian is Bernie.
Bernie who? What did that guy ever really accomplish except for calling out some hypocrisy of the democrat party...
There are ppl that want Elon Musk to end world hunger, cure every form of cancer, every disease, every human hardship in existence before thinking about space. It is unreasonable. For every fanboy there is a hater. Both are equally annoying and dumb.
Lefties have a knack to tell other people what to do
njir... banyak domba2nya elon :-)
PoliticsInsider I’ve got a few ideas where Bernie should spend his millions. Think he’ll listen?
🙄
😂😂😂
Sanders, being the pathetic old man he is, making red rose Twitter wet with a false dichotomy.
But than he doesn't have the money to innovate and instead it goes to teh US gov to propagate their pointless wars.
U don't tell people how to spend their mony 😅,or do u
