Usually lobbyist in Washington, which is why "public interest" and future technology fall way behind to stuff like big oil and defense.. Hence the reason Tesla is such a rare example of getting it right. That's mostly due to Musk having so much of his own money and public power to throw behind it.
I dunno why you are so against it. I for one am happy to see tax dollars being spent on something new and positive for our future vs giving more to greedy old fuckers to top off their profit margins..
At least Musk is doing stuff that will benefit humans and our future vs just trying to fatten his wallet. There are any number of business options Musk could have jumped into with his money and made much more money than he's making by doing what he's doing.
He could of just been another greedy investor keeping his money in investments living the high life off the returns. Instead he's prompting positive change across a few spectrum's.
