Never expected
Elon Musk just suddenly expressed his stance
On December 7, American billionaire Elon Musk posted on social media that he would not use his increasing influence in the Trump administration to attack or retaliate against industry competitors. This statement sparked widespread discussion, as Musk is known for his bold remarks and controversial business practices. In recent years, Musk has made rapid progress in multiple fields, from electric vehicles to space exploration, to social media, he is almost everywhere. His interactions with American politics have also become more frequent, especially regarding his stance on some key policy issues, which reveals his political ambitions. In this context, his public statement of "not retaliating against competitors" inevitably brings to mind historical cases where business tycoons used their power for personal gain, such as Rockefeller's monopoly empire, which ultimately led to the birth of antitrust laws. However, the key question is, can Musk truly maintain this kind of "magnanimity" consistently? The business world is inherently competitive, especially in the tech sector, and conflicts of interest are unavoidable. Do you think a businessman who conquers the market can truly remain "non-harming" in politics?
