To be fair, Tesla is owned by a South African who immigrated to Canada, then the US - and had apartheid slaves do the hard part of precious stone mining.

Much like the former cheetoh in chief, completely removed from the realities others face, and never had to deal with consequences.

It isn't a solely American thing, though we may be the world champs at it.

It's funny how we all do that. You see it in immigrants that bring their best practices and learned culture to their new homes.

It's a tale as old as time. We certainly did not abandon our European ways, and adopt the original American native lifestyle upon our arrival to the continent. It certainly affected our ways for survival but we certainly pushed our way of life without a doubt with its European economic and religious values.

So the circle of life now? 😇
