Elon Musk’s Cybercab Robotaxi Rollout Means Little to the Average American
Innovation is fun and all, but…
Elon Musk has done it again.
This time, a robotaxi model ‘Cybercab’ that seats two and doesn’t have manual driving apparatus. The robotic vehicle is Musk’s latest in technical wizardry aimed at lining his own pockets and shoving American innovation forward.
But the average American, at least where I live, has much different interests. While we may scroll past press release poses of the unveiling, it’s with a yawn. Oh, would you look at that. Musk has more money than God. What else is new?
We are too busy pretending we aren’t financially drowning.
The average American, at least where I live — is trying to stay sane and sober. Is trying to understand how we work all these hours and literally never get out of debt and into anything financially stable.
The average American on the East Coast of North Carolina, where I live, is trying to balance gassing up the car, paying Netflix or the phone bill, or making payments on college loan accounts that never, ever go down in balance no matter how hard we try.
We are upside down on our vehicle loans and wondering if this really is the American Dream.
