It’s a meme stock, not an ‘investment’.
And now Musk has parlayed it, and his various pyramid scheme-like companies into replacing as much of the US government as he can get away with with his junk.
The US will suffer.

The cost to public services harms everyone. Unskilled rural labour has absolutely been hammered by immigration. ('they do the jobs British people won’t do! (Actually we don’t want anybody doing that work for that pay.)
I have no idea why you specify London. I only used the ‘not far off a London a decade’ as an illustration that every reasonable person will agree shows that the level of immigration is unsustainable. Please don’t make me waste my time having to respond to silly comments.
I am aware of this, however, the reality on the ground is exactly as I described.
Nobody is going to fix capitalism in the time frame available, so deal with the world as it is, not as any of us would like it to be.
If you are one of the lucky people who haven’t had their lives decimated by more austerity, more benefits cuts, interspersed by bouts of meaningless ‘essential’ work (such as stacking shelves) on a zero hours contract, good for you. You can have the luxury of taking that attitude, and feel good about yourself while you do so.
But, genuinely with the best will of the world, when you are looking at not far off a London a decade, immigration is simply not sustainable. Ignoring this reality pushes Reform towards power.
Everyone is not ‘anti-progress’, unless the ‘progress’ you mean is the type we see Elon Musk engaging in in the US.
But wait, the combination of ‘austerity’ and privatisation both parties (red and blue Tory) have engaged in for decades now is exactly a slow-paced what Musk is speed-running in the US. And the UK gradually moves down the global affluence tables while the rich get richer because of it.
So I guess maybe that is why everyone is so anti ‘progress’. You just forgot the necessary quotation marks around the work ‘progress’.
