I’ve seen some people suggest that since he entered the US under a student visa and was working illegally in America that there might be something actionable there to revoke his citizenship. I believe still has South African citizenship and does have Canadian citizenship… for more.
"Go back where?" Only applies to refugees and people whose countries do not exist anymore.
The answer for the rich who own 3 citizenships for tax avoidance and giggles is,
"whatever the next country of your citizenships you fancy"
It’s crazy. As just one example, Hollywood exports American culture to every corner of the globe and collects payment for it in every currency. It’s unique; some might even say exceptional.
That used to be a conservative shibboleth. Times have changed. America sucks, I guess.
It's only unprofitable because the wealthiest customers eat for free!
SS/Medicare is a separate fund. It doesn't contribute to the national debt. In fact, it lent trillions to other programs, has never been paid back, & still isn't in debt!
The National Parks have an 11X ROI too & aren't in debt.
I'm still stuck on "if outsiders stop lending us money". Maybe the chuds that are running the US govt should stop doing things that would caution lenders from lending us money?
Breaking the entire federal government seems like it would give lenders pause!
Yes that, and DOGE isn't how you make the government more efficient or in this dude's stupid analogy more profitable. The Inspectors General they fired already were detecting fraud and abuse, for one, and were good at it (and could successfully add and subtract). DOGE is theater for dumbasses.
and in any case, IF that were what doge was really doing, they would leave the nat parks alone, indeed beef them up, bc those things are serious, hard core moneymakers.
Somehow their business analogy never gets around to investments, including incurring debt, leading to future earnings. And I guess show me a company that mints and prints it's own currency. I mean, it's ridiculous, dogma.
If people thought of the country in this way, I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t have elected someone who has a half dozen bankruptcies to his “credit,” most of which were casinos, which he seemed determined to disprove that “the house always wins”
Or maybe even a better example: if you decided to stop paying for public transportation to save money. (And you’re too far to walk or bike) and now you can’t get to work at all.
If they’re just worried about national debt, America could solve all its financial problems and make Americans lives better at the same time by taxing the top tax bracket at 90% like they did in the 1950s.
Also I think it’s worth noting that if you have a huge tax burden on that top bracket, and employees and infrastructure are tax deductible as business expenses, there is incentive to put your profits back into your employees and contractors rather than hoard it all.
I don’t know all the lingo. Are you talking about tax brackets.. like how currently you are only taxed 37% on income you make after 730,000 or whatever (and not on all of your income just because you hit that income level as people seem to think) ?
Good luck getting them to actually pay, though. They dont even pay the tiny amount of taxes they owe now, though I dont know how hard the irs was trying to collect
Back in the feudal days, countries tried to turn a profit, thus enriching their sovereigns.
Then we had these revolutions, some quite noisy, & that shifted the paradigm.
As with everything in life it’s not what is done but how it is done. DOGE has already failed in every way it can in terms of execution. Result won’t matter much coz cultural scarring lasts forever. Money doesn’t.
What would be deeply unprofitable, phrase not used to describe countries. point here is if you think it is bad now. Traitor's tax cut for rich will blow the lid off debt and add another 12 to 15 trillion to it. For the benefit of under 1% of usa. Cuts to svs would hit almost 50%, let that sink in.
This same jackass also said: "Nobody cares about what's happening to the Uyghurs, okay. You bring it up because you care and I think it's nice that you care. The rest of us don't care. I'm just telling you a very hard, ugly truth. Of all the things that I care about, yes, it is below my line."
Disclaimer my edible hit. I can’t stop thinking about how is all fake and none of this matters when considering the whole universe and we only get so much time and I get sad thinking people spend their whole life worried about profits.
There is no purpose for government to earn a profit in a free market economy. They want to return to a mercantilist model where the gov itself accumulates profits in order to have trade surpluses and a stranglehold on goods. This is the reason for Trump’s tariffs and imperialism.
This! If the country is "unprofitable" in this sense, it is because it is grossly undercharging its wealthiest "customers" for the services it provides.
I mean it was built so that white guys can get wealthy by exploiting others. That's pretty much what a startup does. This kind of narrative is extremely coherent with what America is imo, they want America to be "profitable" by reinforcing the subjugation of others. Exactly how enterprise works.
They are cult followers of Yarvin et al, who sincerely believe democracy has failed and the republic properly should dissolved by mere presidential election, and want an empire of men not laws.
They are the enemies warned in the oath found in 5 USC 3331 and elsewhere.
How about if we are hoping for them to be accurate? or to know their a$$ from a hole in the ground? Does that make us "unpatriotic"? If we were running it like a business, we'd hire f'ing accountants not the doge clown car of incompetence!!
Role of gov’t is to ensure safety, protection, welfare of its people, meaning provide military, infrastructure, healthcare, education, regs protecting consumers. Fed issue money, not user.
Respectfully, this is not how modern monetary systems work.
The gov’t does not spend our tax dollars. They issue money when congress passes legislation requiring spending.
The Fed gov’t budget is not like a household.
Fed deficit = money spent into economy that was not taxed back
Even former Fed chief Alan Greenspan, in 2009, said the Fed gov’t cannot run out of money. It is constrained by inflation if Fed spending into the economy exceeds the productive capacity of the economy. Investing carefully into productive forces would grow GDP.
Even assuming "billions" was more than a drop in the budget bucket, a lot of that supposed waste is just long term investment. Soft power today is cheaper than hard power tomorrow. Speculative research often leads to useful discoveries later.
Ah, while it may be true that is not a very good defence. Spending billions is a large large amount of money taken from each persons taxes.
It would be great to continue protecting the world, and going into debt. Just as you said, money is cheaper today than tomorrow. But tomorrow will come.
I would love to agree more, I just think that defending over spending of Billions is small only because we are trillions in debt. They are not drops in the bucket.
That’s because we’re a non profit organization. By, of and for the people. No waste was the plan but then the MIC came along and decided our country needed to fund their profits
These motherfuckers. And for funsies, let's say it did make a profit, who exactly who be the beneficiary of that profit? I'm guessing NOT the average American. 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
America is the richest country in the world so I don’t know WTF they’re talking about. This isn’t Argentina and can’t be run like that (not to say chainsaws in govt have merit bc I am a skeptic)
The entire premise is one that doesn't exist elsewhere. In civilized countries, the very wealthy pay a fair share of taxes. Only recently in the US has that become somehow "normalized." If billionaires not paying fair taxes makes the US default, that's on them.
TIL he did Facebook Beacon and that should functionally mean zero people should take him seriously. Zuck fucking apologized for his work after Lane v. Facebook, Inc.
His work inspired privacy law by being a perfect example of shit that should be illegal
We get to choose what "fit" and "survival" mean. Societies that choose something other than "the biggest asshole wins" are generally better places than ones that reward assholes but make them use money instead of guns. If it sucks too bad, the guns will come out anyway. Good luck with that.
Your higher level awareness here is just totally lacking, you must still be in early alpha.
A lot of what government spends on is arguably make-work, but we get results out of it. If too many folks are too hungry or their lives suck too much, they will stop playing money and start playing violence.
Or people who are good at taking from others. They decide to amass wealth off the backs of others, not caring that they can’t afford housing and food, as long as they create a product the wealthy guy can profit from.
And if we're going to have that argument, America has been one of the most profitable ventures ever. Think of all that has been accomplished with it backstopping health aid, security guarantees, and diplomacy for decades.
A world that has a sense of assurance that things will be okay is more liable to trade, spend, and run the cash around, like any country that puts a safety net beneath its people.
When, in history, did it become a thing to expect govt to make a profit? It literally should not have surpluses and if it does, it shouldn’t be for long. Govt is for the collective good. We are not a monarchy meant to make our leaders wealthy. Govt is for the benefit of the people.
Training a Large Language Model on whale song was an interesting idea, but it's time to accept that this is never going to meet any definition of 'intelligence'
Government is NOT a business:
- We care for the sick because it is humane
- We educate our children because it is our due to the future
The oligarchs have spent 3 generations trying to rejuvenate the idea that profit is the universal motive for all human activity. It simply is not.
This guy got to where he is due to the deeply unprofitable country of Canada where his family received refugee status, welfare support, universal healthcare and subsidized university tuition. But now that he has EDS — Elon Derangement Syndrome — it's time to burn everything down that lifted him up.
"If outsiders stop lending us money, we will go bankrupt" they say, as Trump and Musk work hard to get outsiders to stop lending us money, trading with us, investing in our stock market and businesses, traveling here on vacation...
Even if the country were a business, slashing your own revenue and then saying that cutting spending by less than half of the amount of revenue you're losing is also a shitty way to run a business.
Ahh, incomplete thought that I can't edit. Slashing revenue and then saying you can save the business by cutting spending, but the revenue you lost is 2.5 times more than the spending you're cutting, is stupid af.
Can you explain to that genius that the party trying to have Musk to destroy government is the same party that paid for wars in the Middle East on a credit card, and gave massive unpaid tax cuts during Bush and Trump terms. Social Security is a separate program paid for by voters, for voters.
Play along with their “business mindset” for a moment… their answer is to cut entitlements and give more money back to the top 1% and *still* run an unprofitable business(deficit). Abject morons.
Them: Our B2B startup is deeply unprofitable. If you don’t agree with our VC’s plan to reduce burn by cutting our engineers and salespeople in half, you’re wishing for us to fail.
You: By half, right?
Them: …
If they raised the tax rates for the wealthy & corporations, then removed their tax loopholes, the US could provide universal healthcare, free education, social security, childcare & still pay down debt.
Ummmm - aren’t the leaders experts in bankruptcy, operating at a loss, manipulating markets, and short selling? Never mind that the government operates different than a for profit business. Never mind that Trump ran up the deficit before.
“America is unprofitable” BC in 1982, the SEC authorized stock buybacks. Reducing the number of stocks, increases the stock price, which is tied to CEO salaries BC of fiduciary responsibility. CEO’s suck money from R&D, wages and borrow against the inflated value, reducing value to the consumer. 🧵
Tesla is the canary in the coal mine, and very definition of a company whose valuation is based off of fairy dust, and wishes. They account for approximately 6% of car sales in the US, whereas Toyota accounts for 44% of US sales. Toyota however have a 248B market cap, whereas Tesla’s is 777B.
This is so galaxyed-brained. After WW2, the US set up the global financial system so it can literally print money without consequences. All sovereign nations can do this to an extent, but the US has a special status as the world's principal reserve currency and can sustain massive debt levels.
Trump and his mob are lying pieces of shit because the game has been rigged in the US's favour for fucking decades and every other country has paid a price for that.
Amidst all the concern trolling about default and debts, I never once hear or see any of these bamas propose raising their own absurdly low taxes even one red cent.
If we're so unprofitable, Chamath should take his fucking businesses elsewhere.
Also someone needs to teach these fucking dimwitted geniuses that government is not a business, it's preventing the torches and pitchforks from knocking at their fucking door.
They're not protecting it if they're destroying all of its institutions except those rewarding them with government contracts. And plenty of the highly educated practice profanity, along with plenty of people with fewer degrees. It is a unifying factor
An across the board cut to all universities is a good reason. Universities aren't wasteful spending, unless you have an agenda to reduce the critical thinking and scientific discoveries of the population to render them more compliant
Do you realize that all businesses have significant lines of credit and that a business exists for wealth extraction which is not at all what governments are for? May as well make analogies to bread dough or toenail fungus
Yeah that’s kinda why you idiots are too stupid to understand why the US government works, you stupid fucks think it’s a household budget and a credit card and that’s why no one should ever listen to you and you should sit in the corner with a dunce cap until you take a macroecon class past 101
Right. So the scammers who agree that USA is in ridiculous amounts of debt are fools. But we should instead just keep going further into debt until a communist or oligarch can come and take the US over.
Even if it were "like a company", most companies would go broke if they suddenly had no working capital. Thats not a reflection on the business' quality. It doesn't mean they need to stop doing business.
In fact, companies with strong balance sheets are targets for hostile takeovers.
There are articles that show how the executives in 'business' world have a VERY HIGH levels of Sociopathy/Psychopathy.
American Psycho is practically a documentary.
I hope you are right although right now Schumer and Jeffries are giving off major Biden/Garland bipartisan norms vibes and it’s long past time to never do any bipartisanship ever again nor mention the word ever again
Schumer and Jeffries should have been voted out after their failures, esp Jeffries. Last congress was the worst do nothing congress in US history and he still failed to win.
Bipartisanship is not a big priority have a tiny bit. Focus on change and action if they win.
IF America ever has free elections again, doubtful, and if the Dems win power they should heavily tax billionaires & multimillionaires and get rid of their many tax loopholes & hire 3 times the IRS agents biden had to focus on them
If they move overseas, tax their US assets even more heavily.
People who actually do care about America's financial situation will demand that corrupt billionaires give back this huge tax cuts that Crime Lord Trump gave them and himself
& demand Musk & Trump stop looting the public good the government, to give even more tax cuts for billionaire oligarchs.
Tax the rich, ban corporate lobbying, overturn citizens united, remove most government contractors, cancel corporate subsidies, and nationalize utilities and essential services.
Anyone who talks about running government like a business is automatically someone not worth listening to. When examining "efficiency" in government the goal is to make sure money spent is having the intended benefits and necessary services.
If a government agency is "profiting" then that means it's not doing it's job effectively and that money should be better spent and allocated to enhance the services offered by that agency to benefit more people.
I’m enjoying the phase where super rich dorks either reveal their utter lack of economic knowledge / debase themselves in service to another rich dork.
Great point Jay!
When a natural disaster strikes and destroys entire communities,people rely on government, FEMA, to help makes their lives whole again. Not for profit! The national parks are very popular, a for-profit company would lease the land for mineral extraction for profits for shareholders!
Country = business types can't stand to see any land left in its natural state. That's unprofitable. In reality, the value of unspoiled nature is immeasurably greater than *anything* a "businessman" could replace it with.
These people are so deeply stupid. America is the richest country in the world and has been for like a century. Seems like it’s pretty profitable except for the part about that not being a thing countries do.
This particular sociopath has some gall supporting this admin given that Canada gave his parents asylum and educated his ass for free. And now he’s watching Trump trying to annex it and cheering him on.
Even if you DO accept his premise, imagine telling a growing startup business that the path to profitability is to lay off all your staff. YOU NEED MORE REVENUE to make this work, not tax cuts! Their plan is to reduce revenue, turning our government into a Big Lots.
The rubes will continue to get the simplistic, red meat message "run it like a business" but I'm not sure there's not some true believers among guys who oughta know better. ✌️
These people are so deeply stupid and they are the ruling class. They are so stupid because they have never had to actually accomplish anything in their lives, never had to overcome any actual challenges. When they screwed up, it was never they who suffered consequences because of their privileges.
That in a nutshell eyplains both Trump and Musk. They are among the stupidest people who ever lived and they made it to the top because of privilege, and they are gonna wreck the planet. And many of their supporters and admirers are just like them.
And I'm sorry to say many others of our elites are just as incompetent. For example Germany's Merz, who will become Chancellor because of sheer luck after running one of the worst election campaigns ever and who has never accomplished anything in his political career other than preventing progress.
It’s never been about efficiency. It’s tearing down the US strength, security, economy, health and education for the benefit of the tinpot war criminal and allow the uberrich to pick up assets cheap in a recession.
Tariffs are to extort companies for bribes and break alliances.
America is amazingly successful economically. The unprofitable part is how the government spends more than it takes in. Why? It can either cut spending (mainly the military, Medicare and Social Security, guess which they want to cut), or put tax rates on the rich back to 1960 and balance the budget.
No. Definitionally the federal government’s deficit is the non-governments surplus. Interest paid to bond holders is a policy decision and not a fiscal concern in any way. Unless there is rampant, accelerating inflation, there is no affordability crisis.
Agree. A quick response isn't best for detailed economic discussion. The federal deficit is a choice and the focus on spending by the right-wing is a choice. They fed the lie that the rich benefited the country, grew jobs, when it doesn't.
The real story is the way the rich avoid taxes.
Never forget that these dumb turds - musk, sweeny (epic), everything andreesen horowitz - ran overinflated companies built on vaporware which lose money for years. They only cash in when the gov hands out contracts (palantir), subsidies (Tesla), or free cash to investors (crypto, etc).
My last trip to the restaurant was looking to be quite unprofitable, but as I was leaving I found some cash sitting on several empty tables, and a purse on the back of a chair.
This guy co-founded Roblox. He makes money by getting kids to whine until their parents cough up their credit cards for digital items and now thinks he is god.
If we ever get to a point where we just throw in the towel, I'd like to have a festival like burning man except called Boring Man where we just have a bbq and talk about normal stuff that doesn't herald the end of the republic.
Spoken like someone that has never tried to monetize kitty sessions to people who live in catfree apartments. The best part? All you need to do is feed them fish, and quality fish can be really cheap in some parts of the country.
My cats disagree. They make more money during my livestreams than I ever do. And given my liquor budget vs their snacks budget, they have fewer expenses, too.
Glances at the bill for my cat’s physical therapy and prescription food—Yup, this checks out.
You know what wouldn’t help? Elon Musk weighing in on emergency vet care.
Outsiders aren’t “lending us money” they are investing OUR money into OUR economy that we sent them in exchange for their goods and services to enrich ourselves.
No that’s not correct. We buy gigs and services with US dollars and then those dollars come back to the United States largely as investments and purchasing our debt. So yes the money comes back to us in the form of investment. This isn’t even debatable, it’s just a fact.
But let’s pretend you’re right. Why does that need to stop? We’re enjoying the highest standard of living in the world because we import goods and services cheaply. How is that bad?
Biggest crock of BS I have heard all day. America isn't a business. And thinking trump is a good businessman is ignoring obvious facts about his many failures.
we just want to live and be free, to be able to relax and be happy. we don’t want to work until we croak solely to enrich people who see us as entertainment, as faceless numbers and props for their bullshit experiments
we are also happy to pay our taxes as good citizens provided everyone else does too, even the goddamn billionaires. if they’d just pay their taxes like everyone else we wouldn’t be in half this mess to begin with.
Government converts its debt into the public’s non-financial assets, like infrastructure, education, research, healthcare…. Government issues the currency. We, our households or businesses, use the currency. Government is NOT a household or a business.
damn i can't believe the guys tanking the US dollar don't understand what "the full faith and credit of the US government" means. sovereign debt? international credit? sounds fake
I do too, I hate tech bros so fucking much, I hate how they take memes and try and make profit off of them, I hate how they hype up other billionaires, I hate how they've taken over Americas government, I hate ALL of them
As long as the dollar is the reserve, america doesn't really have a problem. Where you should be looking is at the 17 countries who have recently started to sell the u.s tresuries they hold. The list includes Americas strongest allies and the largest holders of u.s debt including China Japan and u.k
We had the strongest economy in the world after COVID knocked everyone on their asses. There was absolutely zero reason not to buy our bonds...until Trump tanked everything in under two months (and one of those was February!).
A wild thing to assert by the same party the habitual makes the US a credit risk and wants to default on large portions of our debt for the art of the steal
Especially business people who have a history of repeated bankruptcies and their boot licking underlings. Oh! And Nazis should generally be excluded from everything.
The DOGE cuts are focused on eliminating federal government employees whose combined salaries make up roughly 4% of the federal budget. It'll make such a huge difference. 😑
They want every government department transitioned to a state for-profit enterprise. Except the ones they need to destroy to deregulate everything else. Then all the money is vaccuumed out through the magic crypto-scam.
Even Zimbabwe. Eventually it stopped because physical cash still has to be moved about.. and a wheelbarrow of paper for a bag of apples only goes on for so long.

These chuffer heads don’t know an amendment from an article, the deficit from the debt, etc.
(That there's cheap ice cream at Walmart & expensive ice cream at Whole Foods.)
Mind you this concept is the B-plot of a 2003 "Kim Possible" episode, "Low Budget", a kid's show.
The ice cream thing is just basic business stuff.
You learn it in a marketing 101 class. Or, a night out on the town.

Fed deficit = money spent into economy that was not taxed back
It would be great to continue protecting the world, and going into debt. Just as you said, money is cheaper today than tomorrow. But tomorrow will come.
I wish the govt spent more on research.
Countries are here to organized and crowdfund stuff we all need but we don’t need it on profitable basis because it makes
profitable other things.

They are definitely geniuses and I would heed their advice over social media whining.
No, people who have manners and are intelligent don't swear at other people for no reason. Lol.
Maybe time to buckle up and get a real job. Time to earn your way boy. :)
There is no evil agenda, rather they are helping America.
I really doubt that. It shows poor ability to regulate emotions. Like an animal.

They should criminalize tax shelters, domestic or foreign with prison time, not fines. Prison
Which means free reign for the Republicans to continue to dismantle the country and commit a never ending crime spree with no consequences legally
Bipartisanship is not a big priority have a tiny bit. Focus on change and action if they win.
If they move overseas, tax their US assets even more heavily.
& demand Musk & Trump stop looting the public good the government, to give even more tax cuts for billionaire oligarchs.

His whole question of “profitable” nations is depraved and bizarre.
The real story is the way the rich avoid taxes.
Also, like a family, a business doesn’t have a fiat currency.
It’s a bad metaphor made in bad faith in order to mislead.
And the purpose isn’t efficiency or any improvement to the federal debt.
We don't borrow money to avoid default we do it to link our interests with other nations because money is thicker than blood.

We sell bonds which entitles other countries to receive interest, while we get money immediately to spend.
A lot of companies are not operating in America, so a lot of our money is spent in other countries.
