Time has Elon Musk as it's person of the year. I actually guessed this but thought the biggest risk to it not happening was Musk left CA for Texas to save on corporate and personal taxes AND he runs a non-Union shop thus is quite critical of Biden's "Build Back Better" boondoggle that picks winners and losers by only subsidizing electric cars made in union shops... rather than shops that pay with stock that has appreciated and made many workers wealthy... Just another example of how the political process is so corrupt with both parties picking winners and losers. Musk beat TWO other billionaires into Space with tourists and is far ahead in flying actual for profit missions to the Space Station... and he runs a very profitable car company so this is well deserved, no matter that he made this success suckering governments into giving very wealthy people HUGE subsidies to buy status symbol, very fast high performance autos.
