Is America’s progressive income tax—enacted by Congress in part to tame Gilded Age excess—even capable of curbing the wealth inequality now eating away at our social and political fabric? The short answer: Hell no. The root of the problem is that our tax code is based on a fiction.

When the involvement of the world’s richest man is the best explanation for the unusual valuation of a car manufacturer, Nazi salutes by Tesla’s “technoking” take the brand association into new territory.

Elon Musk twice threw what, to much of the internet, had the appearance of Sieg Heils at a rally for Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday that the entrepreneur called “a fork in the road of human civilisation”.

With his support for far-right politicians in Europe, and transformation of Twitter into a safe space for extreme views, Musk is acting like some sort of dank propagandist for the meme age. The question for this finance blog is merely what that means for the $1.4tn market capitalisation of Tesla, rather than, say, humanity.

	Maybe the days when buying a Tesla was a statement about the climate, or embracing a positive future, are long gone. Maybe the share price is impervious to financial gravity. Maybe car buyers won’t care about what is already being called the “salute hoax”.

[IMAGE OF MUSK POST endorsing someone calling it "the salute hoax" and adding "they need better dirty tricks".]

If investors do start to worry that Musk could become more associated with white power than clean power, however, from $1.4tn it’s an awfully long way down.
