Musk companies are thriving due to [[socialism|government subsidies]]. Tesla Motors and SolarCity have taken a huge financial hit in 2016. Both these companies are based on the green energy movement and are being punished by the markets due to extremely low oil prices. Musk lost a personal fortune upwards of $4 billion. In 2017, Tesla Motors would acquire all of SolarCity stocks. The highly anticipated [[Tesla Model 3]] starts shipping at the end of July. The stock valuation of Tesla, which may be due to its software development, far exceeds that of [[GM]], Ford, and Chrysler.

In August 2018, reporters at [[leftist]] rags like ''[[The New York Times]]'' and other publications received word Elon Musk was relying on [[Jeffrey Epstein]] to advise him on whom to consider hiring as board chair or chief executive.  Editors at the ''Times'' sent business columnist James Stewart to talk to Epstein.  "I wondered why would Musk, if this is true, be using a registered sex offender to recruit new members to the board," Stewart told The Kicker, a podcast from the Columbia Journalism Review. Stewart wrote, "He said that [[Pedophilia|criminalizing sex with [barely] teenage girls]] was a cultural aberration and that at times in history it was perfectly acceptable."<ref>https://nytimes.com/2019/08/12/business/jeffrey-epstein-interview.html</ref><ref>https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2019/08/12/epstein-called-criminalizing-sex-with-teen-girls-a-cultural-aberration/amp/</ref>
