@Jason Need to fully restructure entitlements in parallel or prior to this plan. And by restructure, I mean heavily cut and only direct funding to recipients. No funding bloated government programs, non-profits, NGOs, etc.
@Jason Has the number of people in CA receiving government benefits gone up or down since CA passed $20 minimum wage?
Jason - honestly in theory, you may be right. But what you are missing is the government will always want more of your money to waste on bribing voters.
@esaagar I’ll ask again - what is your proposal? How does stopping data centers help the average American in the long run? You think AI will stop progressing? The build out will just happen in other countries - mainly China.
@signulll@elonmusk Any growth in GDP will inevitably grow government spending without the citizens demanding entitlement restructure and reduction.
Unfortunately, the citizens don’t want that. There will be a reckoning one day, but it will come by force not choice and it will be brutal.
@mcuban Yes. That is the status quo today with everyone seeing a doctor in person. How would AI make this worse? Have you thought your position through? What are you trying to say?
