Society is me you and our families. Money is just a tool, risking the good of society for monies is shameful. Just because what he did work doesn't make it any less trash. I hope he will one day pay for it, so that it set the right example not just for Silicon Valley but for every other industry. You need to make GOOD before you can make money. I will be right there to watch that Tesla HBO specials that will probably claim "nobody sees it coming".
You're telling me you've never received a penny working as a healthcare worker in your life. Volunteering for a few hours a week isn't working for free. Healthcare workers have picketed every 2-3 years for wage increases when apparently "money" doesn't matter to them. I would know because I had to take part in strike action while I was still working here. So don't patronize me. If the government announced every worker in BC (including frontline healthcare workers) would get a 50% paycut due to the economic devastation, I'd bet my whole fortune they'd all walk off the job.

Idealism sounds good for PR, but doesn't work in reality.
