They voted to give the richest man in the world a pay rise of 1 Trillion dollars?

Yes, the world has gone mad.

Elon Musk is set to be the world’s first trillionaire.

It’s sickening

No wonder he thinks he can rule the world.

The trouble is, every day would not be the first day of Spring if he did, or, if it was, there'd be a thunderstorm.

It's simply obscene.

It’s a mind- boggling number, isn’t it? Reading about it on the BBC, though, it seems he’s not getting it all in a wheelbarrow to spend this weekend.

It’s what he’ll get, in th form of shares, for hitting certain targets over the next ten years and it’s by no means certain he can achieve that.

It’s still an enormous amount of money and it is concerning to me how one person could skew the world with the influence they could buy.
