Elon Muskās Race to Become the Worldās First Trillionaire Runs Through Your Social Security and Medicare – Jeffrey Sommers
This article was originally published on February 24, 2025, on CounterPunch. Jeffrey Sommers explores how Elon Musk could become the worldās first trillionaire through the āMother of All Privatizationsā (MOAP). He traces Muskās rise from under $1 billion in 2011 to over half a trillion during Trumpās presidency, fueled by post-2008 policies and COVID-19 stimulus. Reaching a trillion would require massive public-to-private wealth transfersāprivatizing Social Security and Medicare, tax cuts for the rich, increased government funding for Muskās firms, and public sector cuts. Sommers sees this as the final dismantling of the New Deal.

I would share this effective satire on Facebook if the obscenities and profanities were not present. Do you really feel that they are necessary? I think they mar the presentation.
They have a G rated version as well….
Ahhh, but itās disappointing that Juiceās biting sarcasm is only directed at the Trump administration here. Members of Congress of both parties are complicit! None of them give a damn (and that applies to sheepdog Bernie, too!) about the American people today. They want us dead if we arenāt generating sufficient profits for them. When are We the People going to wake up and understand this? We truly do deserve the government we get.
Brilliant……….show more of these!
A pretty woman saying shxt I do not find clever.
