So Luxon, whilst bashing the gov about the clean car scheme and it being used to buy teslas, whilst owning his own tesla, whilst being a very rich person, was asking the crown to buy him another tesla. Sigh.

If you are rich enough, there are very few material consequences for doing stupid things.

E.g. make a mistake that costs you personally $100,000? OK, just try again with another $100,000.

This means that he's probably never had to actually suffer any meaningful consequences in his life. Few lessons learnt the hard way.

This makes for a stupid person. "Stupid is as stupid does" after all.
