Forget the Super Yachts and Private Rocket Planes powered by Ammonium Chlorate, the Tech Billionaires have been buying up land in SoCal to build their own CITY!.  lol.  This is not quite as audacious as the Saudi Oil Princes who are Blowing Billions on "The Line", a mega city in th Sahara desert, but it's close.

They figure this is how they can keep tech jobs in CA instead of them migrating to TX, except wait a minute...tech jobs are disappearing and TX RE is in the deep doo doo. So is CRE everywhere.  They want to build this city which quite obviously nobody will be able to afford to live in NOW?

You can'r fix stupid.

Why tech billionaires are trying to create a new California city

OK, I am now fairly convinced that besides being the world champion narcissist and ego maniac, Elon Musk has suffered a severe psychotic break with reality.  Elon apparently believes we can have a colony on Maes with a Million people in 20 years.  If we could even drop a single homo sap meat package on Mars and return him that would be surprising.  He thinks it can be self sustaining. 
The environment on Mars is even more inhospitable than Antarctica.  The atmosphere lacks enough oxygen for mammalian life.  His tinkertoy rockets couldn't lift enough material off the earth and get it to Mars if you started today with 100X as many of them as he has currently operational.

Besides the fully sprouted Homo Saps, Elon plans on starting a new species with his sperm, Homo Muskus.  Apparently Elon fancies himself the Adam of the species Homo Muskus that will evolve on Mars, after his SpaceX Rockets deliver 1 Million A-List Supermodel Vaginas to be impregnated on Mars.

Sanity has officially collapsed.

Elmo is giving Trump a run for his money is the most despised person on the planet, in my opinion. he is like the Ur-incel: send me my government provided vaginas!

in a related story, sales of Teslas are in the toilet. Coincidence? We think not.
