Tesla, SpaceX, and X Employees Favor Kamala Harris Despite Musk's Support for Trump
Despite Elon Musk being loud and proud about his support for Donald Trump, it seems like a good chunk of his own employees aren’t exactly on the same page. In
You're viewing a single thread.
They should support removing Elon as their CEO.
For profit company is usually not ran as democracy, so employees don't really choose the CEO, it is the other way around.
It's funny because the US is usually like "rah rah democracy!!" but also loves private corporations, which are extremely authoritarian.
America was founded by a tobacco company. The Virginia Company had the first successful settlement. And then some obnoxious cultists got kicked out of England joined them.
Comparing employees to citizens is absurd.
- Citizens pay taxes and receive services
- Employees provide services and receive money.
The more apt comparison is voting citizens compared to shareholders. They too get a vote.
That's not the point. The point is people spend most of their day under an authoritarian regime. Taxes and services are irrelevant to this.
Employees can buy stock (and are usually given stock as an incentive). Employees can also unionize and go on strike. When you have poor leadership, employees also leave for other jobs.
Most Tesla stock is held by institutional investors. It amazes me they haven’t demanded Elon move on.
They won’t get far because of the sycophantic boards.
