Elon Musk, the American owner of Amazon’s US boss Jeff Bezos is the third richest person with a personal fortune of $172 billion.
(Which, let us remind you: Bezos was the richest person before the 38 billion dollar agreement he made while divorcing his wife of 25 years, MacKenzie Bezos.) The first and third richest people called on the remaining 8.1 billion people to “Have children.” Bezos, who owns the space tourism company Blue Origin, said in a podcast he participated in, “I would love to see a trillion people living in the Solar System. If we had a trillion people, we would have a thousand Mozarts and a thousand Einsteins at any given time…
“Our Solar System would be full of life, intelligence and energy,” he said. Stating that the goal of companies such as Blue Origin and SpaceX is to create space infrastructure on which future generations can build bigger things, Bezoz stated that he wants to spend what he earns from Amazon on the space infrastructure that space entrepreneurs will use and added: “I imagine people living in giant space stations. These stations have many advantages over planetary surfaces, including the ability to rotate them to create normal gravity.
“Most people will want to live close to Earth and go there for holidays, just like they would go to a resort.” Musk, who attended the traditional politics festival organized by the Brothers of Italy Party, emphasized that humanity should have children in order to maintain its civilization: “Having children is important. If there are no children, there will be no such thing as the ‘next generation’. This is a very basic issue. My advice to all people and government leaders; “Make sure you have children to create a new generation.” Declining births in Italy, the third largest economy in the Eurozone, have turned into a national crisis.
It is said that births, which have been decreasing continuously for 14 years, will cause a new record this year. The fertility rate, which was 1.24 children per woman last year, is expected to decrease to 1.22 children per woman by the end of 2023. Drawing attention to this, Musk said, “Italy is a good place to invest, but you should have more children. This is an incredible country and Italians are extraordinary. But if a company needs to invest, the company asks the question: Will enough people work?” he said.
