Musk's fortune consists of $38 billion in government contracts. Cancel them all.

I guess they don’t teach common sense to people like you.

Common sense can't be taught, dumbass.

“Elon Musk and his cost-cutting U.S. DOGE Service team have been on a mission to trim government largesse. Yet Musk is one of the greatest beneficiaries of the taxpayers’ coffers.

Over the years, Musk and his businesses have received at least $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies and tax credits, often at critical moments, a Washington Post analysis has found, helping seed the growth that has made him the world’s richest person.”

Let’s have some real savings and cut Musk off completely.

Also, why allow him to gain control of the FAA and get the 2billion Verizon contract without a bid.

Musk is putting America back on the map... Obama and Obiden let America fail on purpose...they let the war in Ukraine begin on purpose... they opened our border on purpose and they went to cut Medicare on purpose....
Musk is not the enemy... Obama and Obiden are.....

I can’t imagine why they aren’t.

Not surprising, imagination being a sign of higher intellect.

The US has become an oligarchy, that's what has happened, it's over, the United States is over, we're turning into another Russia.

The only thing you are turning is the stomach of the Americans on this forum.

Musk and DOGE may be self-dealing.

Don't give out tax breaks and the debt will get paid faster.

It doesn't work that way son. It's about economic growth.

Do tax breaks lead to growth?

 

[wamose]

Do tax breaks lead to growth?

Most of the time lower taxes do lead to growth by encouraging investment, hiring and consumer spending. In fact, lower tax rates many times result in higher tax receipts.

Most of those came from previous administrations, including dems


However...I hope you all get what you want. Go after musk and I hope he takes his 400B, shuts down tesla, space X, takes all his research and technology, throws it in a wood chipper and deletes all his software, retires on beach somewhere and says F you, you don't like my advancement of EVs and space travel, enjoy being set back by 20 years or more in both markets...

Why did you ask "why", then?

Yes they do, ask JFK.

I suspect it’s a technology platform so there may be developments not yet disclosed.

What a shame you’re antagonistic to newer technologies but fine with tranny comic books being imposed on foreign nations.

So you actually have no idea

Thanks
