  • Yes, and unfortunately that’s why the world is the way it is. If empathy, creativity and humility were the values that would take us forward in society, everyone would be better off. But that’s a utopia that will never happen, I’m afraid. Because there will always be people who take advantage of the good nature of others to gain an advantage for themselves. That seems to be human nature - and will also be the downfall of humanity, I think. The tyranny of selfishness, built on the shoulders of good people and only made possible by their ruthless exploitation.

Tesla is certainly a company with sustainable technology. But does that justify Tesla being worth more than the 5 largest car manufacturers combined, each of which sells way more cars per year than Tesla? Especially in view of the considerable competition in the EV market.

A serious mistake that still has consequences to this day, unfortunately…
