Yeah, he liked freedom too much to totally disown Trump. I liked the following quote, which is typically perfect:

"It's central contradiction remains the same; It produces publicly, it produces socially, it conscripts and it mobilizes and educates whole new work forces of people, it has an enormous transforming liberating effect in that respect but it appropriates privately. "


Of course, the "but" is the issue. Jeff Bezos serves the international good in some astounding ways, BUT -- he makes money doing it!


At the same time, Elon Musk is the one true hope for human-caused climate change, were that a problem. BUT. He makes money doing it.


How tragic that all of life's problems can be solved, but some SOB makes money doing it . Booo.

Strange thing is that Hitch made money writing, although it was his second choice in life (there wasn't much money in his first choice, reading).
