Elon Musk: “The Actions of the West Are Indistinguishable From Suicide”

Elon Musk: The actions of the West are indistinguishable from suicide.

“At least in America, there's generally a sense of optimism. But when's the last time you talked to someone from Europe who lives in Europe who's optimistic? Even one?

I think unless people have a sense of optimism and purpose about the future, suicide might be just what happens. Having a child is an act of optimism about the future. I think we need to maybe give people a sense of optimism and excitement about the future and a belief that the future will be better than the past and they'll be more interested in having kids.”
