Only On The Walters Post

It’s baffling to see so many eager to tear down Elon Musk, especially from those who claim to care about the environment among other things. The truth is, Musk has done more to push humanity forward through Tesla’s electric cars and SpaceX than most could ever dream of. Oh sure, he’s made mistakes, who hasn’t, but his contributions are undeniable.

Meanwhile, in Canada and beyond, billions are being wasted while crucial sectors like healthcare, agriculture, and self-sufficiency are underfunded. Farming, once the backbone of our nation, has been replaced by imports, leaving us vulnerable. Why? All to save a buck. The same can be said for healthcare, where inefficiencies are running rampant.

Musk, for all his flaws, is working toward a more efficient world. He’s cutting waste, streamlining processes, and making the tough decisions that many others avoid. It’s something we should’ve been doing long ago.

If we focused more on supporting local farmers and investing in our own industries instead of relying on others, we’d be in much better shape. The truth is, we’ve lost sight of the values that made us strong: self-reliance and practicality.

Instead of tearing down those who are trying to make a difference, we should be backing them. Again, Musk may not be perfect, but his work is shaping a better future for all of us and that’s the rest of the story as an old feller years ago used to say.

Until the next time, keep your minds open and your stories alive. GW
