> It has been the equivalent of money for 10 years now

Can I buy my groceries with it? I haven't seen an option to pay my rent, either. What about my water bill?

I wouldn't exactly say it's the equivalent of money.

But why is individual liberty more important than collective thinking? Many places do very well with collectivism. I'm not sure you can just say it's better without evidence. I think it depends on many factors whether individualism or collectivism is best for a particular location and problem.

If only it weren't run by a narcissist, Tesla might have been even better. Imagine a world with the reliability of Toyota but using Tesla drivetrain technology! Instead, we have a whiny man child who limits that great drivetrain to a handful of models of unreliable cars built in a way that's much more harmful to the humans on the assembly line due to poor manufacturing engineering. It's really sad, to me.
