Elon Musk money, power and influence
This post was written by a student. It has not been fact checked or edited.
In my opinion, it hink that Elon musk has too much power. He also has a lot of money which could be a very big problem. It could also be a problem that Elon Musk has too much freedom. With too much freedom and money, who knows what Mr Musk will do. He could put America in serious trouble.
Recently, Elom musk was spreading false information about elections to his 200 million followers on X. Some people had said that "His tweets might interfere with election and political outtcomes." And they did. Elon Musk's tweet on X had interfered with global politics and also the election.
Also recently, Elom musk had shared his opinion on Nigel Farage with his 200 million followers on X. Elom Musk started fresh discussions about whether or not Farage is good for his role. Farage faced pressure to respond. Since then, ten councillors has called Nigel Farage to resign as leader.
Elon MUsk recently endorsed a particular party in the German election on his X account. He did a live stream to his followers with the party leader. This event had upset European Union leaders who felt that Elon Musk wa boosting a candidate unfailry.
In conclusion, my opinion is that Elon Musk has way too much power, money, and influence. With too much of all these things, he could put America in serious trouble.

I do not think that Elon Musk's power is a problem, this is because he worked for his income legally and did not illegally gain it like other people. Everybody knew that because there is proof on the paperwork. His trillion dollars worth company Tesla is his most valuable asset and the primary driver of his wealth. While Musk didn't found Tesla, he was an early investor and became its CEO in 2008. Also his company SpaceX, produces a lot of star links linked directly to his satellites which produce direct internet connection for him and others to use. This brings him a lot of money because in my country, the new pricing structure is as follows: Standard (Residential) N75,000, Mobile – Regional (Roam Unlimited) N167,000, and Mobile – Global (Global Roam) N717,000. “These changes reflect our commitment to investing in the infrastructure needed to support and improve your experience with Starlink,” the company said.
Incase you don't know, Elon Musk is most actively involved in six major companies: Twitter, xAI, Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and The Boring Company. While he co-founded or invested in other companies, his current ownership and leadership roles are concentrated in these ventures. These are already his major sources of income which is a whole on of money. He's very rich and he worked and gained his wealth.
So with these facts,this should be enough to prove to others that Elon Musk legally gained his money and influence. It wouldn't be good to think that he gained it illegally. So, his wealth is not a problem but it just strikes a pang of jealousy and "had I knows".
