America isn't "headed for bankruptcy," no matter what South African Michael Scott says here.
But if he's really concerned about the federal government's balance sheet, he should urge Trump to raise taxes on individuals like him and businesses like the ones he owns. Problem solved.

That’s how our government bailed out banks after the GFC
in fact, does that mean that Musk is going to cull his contracts with the Federal government as part of DOGE ??

They won’t hear it or tolerate tax increases, it’s a dead letter. So that (il)logic demands cuts and cuts and cuts.
They refuse to admit modern society costs a butt ton and income taxes are the only way to pay for it.
And it’s to remind and punish poor people they are less than the “chosen few”.
But yes
Apparently we all gotta get on board with sky daddy so the rich will feel better about themselves.
It’s a long con.
If we don’t fit in their tax bracket-
We can’t play.
I snorted when I saw this part of your post
It’s the only sure fire way.
Tax the rich. We need to keep saying it.
Can we get this to be mainstreamed, please?!?
Cui Bono ?
Tax deductions for private jets, luxury vehicles, first class business travel, elegant meals, and even what Gaetz uses Venmo for will never be on the chopping block.
Everything else he says is just PR.
Oh wait! He's not a member of Congress!
Funny how we are being invaded by South African billionaires & those who lived there for a time( Peter Thiel).
The NERVE!
Why is Elon so concerned? bc he wants to fund his space project, aka going to Mars by 2026, with US taxpayers' MONEY!😠🦨
Donnie and Elon ,s plans are the ones that will kill the US dollar as the global reserve currency.
The Lord approves.
Let's have those figures.
America will definitely go into a recession
Trump’s tariffs will destroy the economy
100%
Let's see if they can make at least one smart decision.
Imagine if the Trump policies which will increase the debt also cause a recession
Maybe not bankruptcy, but there could be a serious crisis in the coming years

And tax billionaires more.
And tax religious institutions that engage in political activities.
And require yearly audits of the military budget
And require balanced budgets once national debt exceeds 70% GDP.
None of that will happen under GOP.
They howled that line during the Great Depression (we can't afford to feed the poor).
You can fix this with taxation: 94% top marginal rate under Eisenhower
"No it isn't, just tax people more, problem solved."
Adjust the law that allows loss carry overs that gets abused
They’re all cooking the books with impunity at this stage
Can we really afford to colonize Mars right now, Elon?
No clue that he's the reason for hyperinflation as money has to be constantly devalued to pay interest on his wealth, and the rest of his ilk.
Maybe there should be.
I’m very worried.
Of course, who am I thinking of... He's Mr. "$750" Billionaire
Mediocre.
Michael Scott, yeah, maybe…i guess
Just brilliant.

Musk’s Twitter takeover was a fucking disaster by any measure, but he’s declared it a success and is going to use it as a model for transforming the federal gov.

And explained how we DID spend more than we earned in ‘20-‘24… while overspending by about 25% LESS than ‘16-‘20 despite covid spending.
