Verizon is marketing on national television that it will connect 10 million people to the Internet over the next five years. That’s impressive, I guess. But Elon Musk, through SpaceX’s reusable rockets and low-orbit satellites, has committed to connecting the entire globe to the Internet over the next three years, and he’s already 15% there and accelerating monthly. Slightly more impressive, I suspect. Rockefeller. Vanderbilt. Carnegie. Ford. Bezos. Gates. Jobs. Musk. And countless others with real vision. It’s fairly clear why entrepreneurs create the future and corporations simply do their best to fill in the blanks.
