I don't think that is the case, they say the same with Bill Gates.. I don't think these types want to become Totalitarians and have that much control, its more a hassle to live that way, why would You want to put yourself into a situation where life becomes more burdensome than enjoyable, because of some sense that more control with make me happier? I don't buy into that at all..

If you look through history, one predictable occurrence is men wanting complete power and to rule as much as they possibly can. Genghis Khan, Julius Caesar, William the conquerer, Hitler etc etc. The idea of there not being men that a hellbent on world domination is actually a new thing. The reason for the shift is the outcomes are usually disastrous and involve genocides and war. As a society we have learnt lessons from the past but we're also aware that due to nuclear weapons, war can be an existential threat and so collaboration has become more prominent in how nations engage. With that comes benefits of trade, freedom of movement, information trading etc which has led nations to be incredibly prosperous. 

Still there lies ego within man and theres an inherent drive that some men have to conquer and rule, the issue they have is regulations dont allow them to do so. The reason why so many people like Elon Musk wanted Trump in power, is because they can get him to lower regulations and do what they want so that they can gain more power. Why would Musk by Twitter way overpriced for 44 billion and then lose so much money on it so that he can have a platform to promote his Trump propaganda? Is he doing it for fun? Of course not, hes doing it because he knows it will lead to regulations dropping and him being able to gain more power and influence. 

If you dont understand why people want to conquer thats fine but it doesnt mean that they dont want to, its played out all through history. Its not really to do with money he has enough, but its what the money can buy, all the money hes spent has allowed him to influence this election. Maybe Trump wouldve won anyway who knows but Musk was at least attempting to change the outcome of the election.

You're projecting your psyche onto Musk. Do you think 200b is enough for everyone? 

Also, with Musk, it's not really about the money anymore since he's already got enough and can easily continue to generate more. 

What he's after now is full control over humanity. He wants full control over all of us and the planet. That's why he's doing it. Plus, he loves the attention. He's now a cancer on humanity. He just endorsed Rick Scott to hold one of the highest positions in US government, House leader. 

Elon is now fully on board with the far right agenda. 

Just a couple of Rick Scott's ideas: 

Sunsetting Federal Programs
One of Scott's most controversial proposals was to sunset all federal legislation after five years. This would have potentially affected popular programs like Social Security and Medicare. After facing significant backlash, Scott revised his proposal to exempt Social Security, Medicare, national security, veterans' benefits, and other essential services.

Tax Policy
Scott initially proposed requiring all Americans to pay some federal income tax, which could have increased taxes for low-income earners and some middle-class individuals who currently pay no federal income tax due to various deductions. He later dropped this proposal and replaced it with a requirement for able-bodied Americans under 60 without young children or incapacitated dependents to work.

Totally agree.
