Not that anybody asked, but if Elon Musk’s wealth as of today ($330B) were entirely hundred-dollar bills, then laid end-to-end, they'd circle Earth three times, and with what’s left over, if taped end-to-end, would make a ribbon long enough to ascend into space and reach the Moon. Just sayin'.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse.
2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report."
3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes."
This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.
