I’m going to be pissed if the answer is sometning dumb like, “turn on the light”. But I can’t think of a way to do it otherwise.

Actually he was a shitty business man. He felt that his inventions would change the world for better and wanted to give his work away for free to everyone. He got funding to build a radio system and was secretly using the money to work on free wireless electricity for the world. When his investors found out they had him declared insane and took over all of his prospects leaving him poor and driving him crazy. The guy was exactly the type of person that would have brought prosperity to the world if he had been allowed. Instead greedy businessmen including Edison shut him down and pushed him into obscurity. Fun Fact: Donald Trump’s uncle was one of the professors involved in “collecting” Tesla’s works on behalf of US national security after he died. https://www.newyorker.com/news/amy-davidson/donald-trumps-nuclear-uncle

It is actually stranger than that. “In 1898, Tesla demonstrated a boat that used a coherer-based radio control—which he dubbed "telautomaton"—to the public during an electrical exhibition at Madison Square Garden.[126] The crowd that witnessed the demonstration made outrageous claims about the workings of the boat, such as magic, telepathy, and being piloted by a trained monkey hidden inside.[127] Tesla tried to sell his idea to the U.S. military as a type of radio-controlled torpedo, but they showed little interest” - Wiki. He told them what he’s made and they thought he was lying.

He can thank those soldiers that he's not speaking German any time he wants to pull his head out of his ass. No offense to current Germans.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...ummmmmmmmmmm....no. That's a demotion. Generals fight (send others to fight) for political leaders. Of course there are some monarchies that have led and fought in battles but generally speaking, Generals work for princess.

Well that's not in the United States. You would need a full rail system, a harness with lanyard, a hard hat, safety glasses, a reflective vest and hard hat. You would need an 8 hour course to become "a compitent person" in order to use the lift and some one would be required to stand at the bottom to secure the area. I'm probably missing a few requirements as well.

I'm sure a guy that has billions invested in clean energy is being completely objective in his decision. But if he truly wants to keep the US on the track to more renewable energy, he should have stayed and pushed the issue. Instead he bailed when it looked like it wasn't going to profit him any more.
Trump needs people like him and other industry leaders in his ear. The US can still be converted with out international policy but it needs to be guided from within. Elon and the others that left don't seem to want to do the tough job of making those policies happen and were just looking to ride the profit train of international policy making. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
