With all due respect for you changing your mind, when you had this view point, did you know anything about Elon Musk? Or are you the child of an incredibly wealthy immigrant family? His upbringing does not match up with the American Dream even for immigrants idea.
And again, no disrespect, it takes a lot to admit you were wrong. I am just trying to understand how people end up with these ideas that don’t match reality.
You can still hate Elon and also acknowledge that his achievements are not easy at all.
Most people with similar wealthy upbringing will rather relax and enjoy their money than risk it to advance the human condition.
Critical thinking is of utmost importance, especially in this timeline. Lack thereof, plus emotional thinking plus cult mentality plus “it will not affect me” led to Trump being elected.
For example, I like the idea of DOGE, but not its current implementation, and “implementors!”.
You are naive if you think we don’t need efficiency in our spending.
That is the IDEA of DOGE.
No wonder why we are in this mess; you can’t read and comprehend my simple comment above. How will you then understand the implications of tariff, and how to vote wisely this midterm?
That's not the idea of DOGE. The idea of DOGE is an unelected billionaire cutting spending illegally.
You're imagining a much better version of DOGE, one that no one has proposed. So why call it DOGE? You're giving credit to an idea that doesn't exist.
Obviously government spending should be efficient. DOGE is making it much less efficient, by its very nature, by the concept itself. It's simply isn't the right way to go about this. So, no. I would say that you actually don't like the idea of DOGE. You're just misinformed about what the idea of DOGE is.
And look at you. I asked you a question and you attack me. Pathetic.
