Elon Musk Tweets Protest against US Coronavirus Lockdown
Elon Musk, the multibillionaire founder and chief executive of electric car company Tesla, has joined those protesting against the coronavirus lockdown of the US economy, tweeting: ''FREE AMERICA NOW'', The Guardian reports.
Musk, the world’s 22nd-richest person with an estimated $38.5bn (£30.5bn) fortune, on Wednesday tweeted: ''Give people their freedom back!'' with a link to a Wall Street Journal article suggesting that the lockdowns have not saved that many lives but have shattered local economies.
He also tweeted: ''Bravo Texas!'' with a link to a local newspaper story about the Texas governor Greg Abbott’s plans to allow shops, restaurants and movie theatres to reopen from Friday.
Replying to another user on Twitter he said: ''Yes, reopen with care & appropriate protection, but don’t everyone under de facto house arrest''.
