"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."
Fuckin welfare queen
Illegal immigrant. Welfare queen.
No kink shaming, but conservatives really are cucks, huh?
Musk is a fascist evil villain, not a conservative. He is also not liked much by the conservatives I know.
One day I want the word conservative to go back to what is used to mean decades ago. Conservative used to not mean whatever is happening now
It never meant anything good. It was always about oppressing minorities and enriching the owner class.
What are you talking about? Conservative used to just mean people who wanted to protect and conserve the American way of life and the American political and economic systems..... Which oppress minorities and enrich the owner class lol
It means many things to different people, its an overused word. Now, its a bad word
Fascism is a conservative ideology.
Regardless of if you agree with the above, conservatives are supporting Musk and his actions so my original comment stands.
It’s a very large country dominated by few sources of news that at best, will give an idea about what some of the population is feeling.
Social media is not much better an indicator. Usually with a very small percentage of people participating who probably don’t fit the demographic of any large group of people.
More so, opinion polls can be inaccurate at this time because most people don’t reply to spam calls, text or mail.
In my area most people are not political at all, the people I know who identify as conservative either don’t care, know or support what is happening. Most people I know who identify as not conservative are out of the loop or cynical.
Regardless, most of either persuasion would regard my comments and this thread as odd. Meanwhile I am sure I can tune into, and read about, how evil liberals or conservatives can be.
Neither label applies to most. When I grew up, many years ago, conservative to me meant going to church once a week and not robbing banks, and liberals were seen as promoting reading and planting trees.
People really have not changed that much, but those words certainly did. I miss the old definitions, and am not making any sort of political comment here
Honestly your perception of the parties back then weren't accurate either, just sounds like you miss not having to actually pay attention to me. No offense meant, as I too wish I didn't have our political discourse in my brain 24/7 lol
That's how these parasites all do it, market & government manipulation and handouts
Guys, he's just .. like .. a modern day robin hood .. you know how that story goes .. he is taking from evil poor people, to keep the money safe. And don't fact check that story like an evil poor pleb.
Elon Musk, Elon Musk Riding through the land Elon Musk, Elon Musk Without a merry band He steals from the poor And gives to the rich Stupid bitch
He's Robbin the Hood.
In other news, it is a bad idea to touch a lit stovetop.
While average American people suffer, the world's richest man diverts 38 billion dollars of their taxes to himself.
I can't believe Bezos allowed WaPo to publish this.
They're not friends lol. Bezos would be happy to see Musk sink.
They might not be friends, but they have unconditional class solidarity, do we?
They only have class solidarity when it comes to the poors. They have no loyalty to each other.
If Billionaires had any kind of solidarity, they wouldn't be billionaires.
No, they don't. It's a big club we aren't in, but billionaires will step on other billionaires if they can make more billions.
That's why a lot of the financial industry billionaires keep their mouths shut and their businesses follow the same rule. Having a big mouth is the best way for another billionaire to find a way to profit off of running their mouths.
The only time "they both win" is if one wins more than they would stepping on the other.
Kleptocracy.
And this illegal billionaire will not suffer any repercussions whatsoever. If that was me, I'll be in prison just by the thought of it.
I think we found what to cut to hit that 4.5 trillion budget!
Thanks Obama.
Seriously, the Obama administration loved this guy even though it was obvious to a lot of us that he was a total grifter. The Starship/Artemus plan made no sense but got selected anyway.
