Opinions 

Elon's super truck gets a bad press
there has been some setback, which will be fixed
It is too early to take delight in his setback
a man like Elon Musk has many enemies 
dislike his forthrightness calling a spade a spade
he is rich, and people who disagree and take
offense, yet read what he writes
Of course, they have the right to do so, but 
I feel it is done out of malice,
Many people 
feel resentful, almost vengeful, saying no one
should have so much money, thinking his cash
in big bags, in a vault, while, in fact, the money
is in stocks and shares.
There are two ways to be outspoken on is to
be wealthy, the other is to be poor
If you are financially modest, you can write
freely whatever you want, but the drawback 
without influence, no one hears you
 except 
perhaps one or two people on 
the Facebook
The others are like pebbles on the moon 
totally unimpressed, but prefer niceness
It is not dangerous, and no one is engaging 
in your utterings
What worries me about Elon Musk is that
his honesty is upsetting, 
the authorities might
try to diminish his wealth and do him harm  
Having aired my opinion, I must say how
I much dislike electric cars  and am waiting for a better 
system to emerge
