you're obviously ignorant of the fact that Musk neither did invent nor prototye Tesla, and if you were right, the true inventors would be billionaires now
>things that made them rich are still around
like: DOGE stealing data from government agencies and feeding them into his AI-models capturing every US taxpayer, also looking into the contracts of all his co-competitors in the Military Industrial Complex and space businesses - which is actually what made him the first $-trillionaire EVER

>the answer is a much worse planet.
fuck you, NO
you're mixing up people who do actual work, inventing and producing things
and the people who get rich by piling up money, despite the detrimental social and environmental effects of their businesses (Musk later gutted the very agencies that had stopped him in harming others)
Musk bought himself a government and profited immensly from just that, not his shitty cars
Same with billionaires in general - two third of Congress members are funded by big pharma (which is an industry brining forth many billioaires)
the truth about the fentanyl crisis, for instance, is that it was big pharma who introduced fentanyl in the very first place by promoting it aggressively, turning hundreds of thousands patients into drug addicts and creating a market which drug barons willingly hopped into
and since the rich can pump as much money into every election since Citicens United this is how they create a business environment to get richer so exponentially fast as we can watch in the US now
it goes beyond corruption, even beyond SYSTEMIC CORRUPTION, as we can see it now in a 47 administration of incompetent figures, whose only qualification is BEING BILLIONAIRES or part of the rightwing media ecosystem, or both, and
THEY CAPTURED WHOLE STATE
