Elon Musk ripped US infrastructure, calling many American airports an 'embarrassment'

slammed US infrastructure on Wednesday during the electric-car maker's first-quarter earnings call, saying it was in need of new investment.

"We have a lot of crumbling highways and bridges and, frankly, when I visit China, I see their infrastructure as being much better than ours. It's great. Europe has better infrastructure. It's really quite sad that US infrastructure, especially roads and highways, is where it is today," Musk said. "And our airports, in a lot of cases, are an embarrassment."

He’s going to get himself arrested

I own stock in Tesla. Thank you for speaking out. More business leaders need to do the same COVID19

Once you go through airports in some other countries (particularly in Asia like SIN, ICN, or NRT) you realize how US airports are falling behind

Trump agrees with that

And? He’s been still digging tunnels . Figure it out and stop being the bitch.

elonmusk go home to South Africa. No one cares about you in America. Take your crooked dope smoking ass away from our great nation. PayPal kicked you out, Tesla is doing the same. Time to leave before 🇺🇸 do the same

He's not wrong

True

BREAKING NEWS: ELON MUSK IS DOWN ON US INFRASTRUCTURE. INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH ... POTUS IS TRYING TO PUSH HIS INFRASTRUCTURE AGENDA! COINCIDENCE ... MAYBE?

considering elonmusk is building Tesla factories in China and giving China jobs not USA made Not USA jobs & wages

Hes right. How about instead of spending $50 billion a year in Afghanistan we fix our infrastructure...

He’s right

He’s right. I travel all over the world. They’re a SH-Tshow.

Broken clock is right twice a day...

Whats he gonna do. Cancel airports?

Cool, take Elon's subsidies and tax breaks, and those of his limousine lib clientele, and put that money towards fixing them

This from the guy who is always looking for a tax break from everywhere he goes to. Probably has a bunch of offshore tax shelters so I would like to know where the money comes to redo these airports? The magic fairy is going to come down and sprinkle the $$$?

That would require levels of taxation that seem impossible at this point. Unless of course we put it all on debt, which would be apropos. $5 trillion massive infrastructure project to be completed by 2035. It'd sure be the best $5 trillion in debt we've piled up in a while.

He is right!

I'm glad Elon Musk wants the mega rich to to pay their fair share of taxes so America can rebuild its crumbling infrastructure!

Musk = BASED

señor elonmusk should call his space buddy on Pennsylvania ave &remind him he was suppose to address the atrocities of infrastructure as a campaign promise. This issue is not just roads either, water, utilities & food distribution are most important as well.

hblodget He is right. At least in 9 out of 10 cases.

hblodget he is right

Sounds like realDonaldTrump - let’s clean it up! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

elonmusk We need airport testing set in place like the other side of the world.

If he doesn’t like the USA he can go back to South Africa... jus sayin

after flying into at least 30 airports in this country, i totally agree with him!

I’ve been to some airports, Wash. Dulles, Orlando, Chicago, and St. Louis. They are in fact good, can’t complain especially they are not private business.

LGA, EWR, PHL.

elonmusk is starting to believe his own press. It's wise for people to stick with what they know.

elonmusk go back to South Africa

We will get right on that once everyone stops dying of covid. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Bring on the VTOL passenger drones

Hard to disagree with him on both points.

He is absolutely 100% correct.
