The evil right continues its all-out assault on Elon Musk and his initiatives in SpaceX, Tesla Motors, and SolarCity:
Why Elon Musk is a Poor Person’s Worst Nightmare

Elon has ruffled some serious feathers out there. He must be on the right track.

I won’t go so far as to call Musk another Henry Ford, but he certainly is walking the same path. People have no concept of history anymore, no understanding that the automobiles we take for granted today were themselves once considered “toys” of the rich and the idea that the horse would be replaced by them regarded as ridiculous. It took men of vision, like Ford, to combine mass production with the automobile and make it available to the common man.
