Every dollar Elon Musk has made is traceable. Every product sold, every service rendered, every government contract awarded, every share of stock bought or sold. It’s all on the record.
You, on the other hand, haven’t built a company, invented a product, or created anything people willingly pay for. You’ve spent the last 14 years collecting a $174,000 Senate salary.
Yet somehow you managed to buy a luxury D.C. condo, a $4 million Victorian mansion in Cambridge, and saw your net worth balloon by 150% to $12 million. Everyone knows where Musk’s money came from. The same can’t be said for yours.
@CAgovernor Maybe you could focus on getting rid of the massive corruption that occurred under your watch instead of criticizing our greatest Americans — and largest tax payers in history?
Elon has created thousands of millionaires. The only millionaire you’ve created is yourself. Elon is a wealth creator. You are a looter. While your title is POLITICIAN, your real profession should be called THIEF.
I am filled with optimism at the fact that the world's first trillionaire was made not by hedge funds or market manipulation, but by building the infrastructure to take America to the stars.
America is such a rich country that “mere” half-billionaires like Ro Khanna (wife’s inherited family fortune) and Dan Goldman (Levi Strauss heir), and “down and out” decamillionaires like Liz Warren accuse OTHER PEOPLE of being too rich!
Elon Musk is about to become a trillionaire
If he agreed to pay just 80% of that as a wealth tax to the EU, the EU government could use its efficient operating experience to fund bicycles with solar panels attached to them for over 40 residents of the Netherlands
Elon is being selfish by not paying the wealth tax
El Salvador President Bukele:
“They are worried about the human rights of the k*llers. What about the human rights of the women who don't want to be r*ped? Or the kids who want to safely play in the park?”
@StealthQE4 lol do you verify headlines before posting or just push anything that’s pushed? Here let met help you; “Trump declares victory over Iran and agrees unconditional surrender, crude tanks 1400BP” post it - seems like your general source and verification network.
Little history on AOC and Iran:
-She condemned Trump for killing top Iranian regime terrorist Qassem Soleimani
-She condemned Trump for blowing up Iran's nuclear facilities
-She co-sponsored legislation to prevent the U.S. military from taking action against Iran
-She was one of the only House members to not condemn Iran for attacking Israel
-Opposed to sanctions on Iran
Really nuts that we, US taxpayers, are paying for this stuff.
The projects are technically written in English, but it’s not in English. No one can explain what these are.
For those that reflexively hate DOGE, do you honestly think your quality of life or cost of living goes either up or down because of these projects??
Because they don’t.
We should probably cancel them and keep cancelling other questionable spending until all that is left are the true projects that improve quality of life and decrease cost of living.
Then we can take a bunch of the money we saved along the way and put more money into those core programs and see sustained improvements for Americans.
@dgoldwas@CDePriest5@bennyjohnson I concur. However, isn’t a 3% year-over-year inflation rate consistent with historical norms, aligning with wage growth to maintain purchasing power? Expecting zero inflation seems unrealistic—how do we stabilize prices while increasing wages without eroding corporate margins?
@YANGS1K@nerds_humanity Tom doesn’t care - he is pro-Epstein. Say Trump is detrimentally affected by release of the Epstein files - however, so are Clinton’s and other left wing figures. It’s a break even for him; if the list is released, we should hold you accountable for every ind on ithe supported.
Went to an estate sale today.
Crazy how much time we spend chasing material possessions, curating our homes, acquiring things, acting like we’re going to live forever.
Then one day, sooner than you think, your family will take the good stuff before strangers dig through what's left, looking for deals. No attachment, no emotion, zero care at all for you or your life.
It was a good reminder.
What actually matters is family, love, relationships, memories. Not the material stuff. Not the money.
You don't take any of it with you.
Ezra Klein explains how it feels to be a Democrat in under 30 seconds:
Ezra Klein: "The stimulus bill under Obama, that had 3 big headline projects for reinvestment.
High speed rail, smart grid, a nation wide system of interoperable health records. 0 for 3"
Gavin Newsom: "I remember those days"
Klein: "At some point, we gotta be upset about this."
Democrats: 'Promises made, promises kleptocracy'
