Elon Musk @elonmusk - Exactly

The demand for Elon Musk to surrender 30% of his business to operate in South Africa is absurd.
Bringing infrastructure, creating high-skill jobs, and expanding the national tax base should be more than enough contribution from any global entity.
The South African government claims this is about compliance, but in reality, it’s a system of state sanctioned theft.
While other corporations have quietly paid for political patronage to bypass these rules, Musk is calling out the corruption. This 30% norm hasn't empowered the people, it has simply enriched a circle of political elites.
Most businesses take the easy way out and pay the bribe, but Musk has the integrity to stand his ground and expose the rot.
