SpaceX requires employees to agree to some unusual terms related to their stock awards, which have a chilling effect on staff, according to sources and internal documents viewed by TechCrunch.
To think that amount of wealth can be earned is fucking naive. More than naive. More than how a child is naive. It’s willful ignorance, full stop, and if you are for it, you’re the enemy of the people.
That’s a good question actually, the first one at least. I’d be fine with 80% of it being earned if someone did 80% of the work. I know life is a bit more nuanced than that, but people are smart and it is achievable, or at least close to the idea.
The second part though is not logical and I really don’t think I need to explain why, but I am willing to.

This is only true as an “Achilles and tortoise” argument. I agree it can’t be 100% fairly earned, but then nothing can.
Can it be 80% fairly earned? 60%?
If somebody declares part of the people enemies of the people, then they are enemies of the people themselves.
