A Point Musk Has Not Considered
Elon Musk is determined force a shut-down of the federal government. As a foreigner, Musk only has a rudimentary understanding of how the U.S. Government operates.
As Musk is eager to see Social Security and Medicare cease to exist and force tens-of-millions of retired and disabled Americans into poverty and homelessness, does he understand a government shut-down will not accomplish this?
“If the federal government shuts down this weekend, work at numerous publicly funded agencies would slow or stop altogether, while millions of government employees would stop receiving paychecks.”
“But Social Security benefits would still go out”
“Social Security is considered a mandatory program, and it's not funded by the shorter-term continuing-resolution bills that have kept the government operating in recent years amid Washington political gridlock.”
So, crafty old Elon will have to wait until next year, after dictator trump enters the White House on January 20th. He, trump, can then, by royal proclamation, declare Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other programs defunct. This action should have the millions of trump cultists dancing in the streets.
