The bottom left point of the line starts at nearly $10 billion, far more money than any human being has ever needed. This accumulation of wealth and its concomitant power in one person’s hands is unconscionable. Civilised societies should not allow it.

I've reported on Musk for around 8 years. I've co-authored a book on him. I don't think folks understand the rate of his wealth accumulation.
Shortly after he helped elect Donald Trump in Nov 2024, his net worth was around $350 billion. That net worth has nearly tripled in less than two years.
