I think that Elon Musk talks crap half the time. And suckers swallow it, hook, line, and sinker!
Listening to Scott Bessent in this video, he must be another one who is full of bullshit as well! Just as Ronald Reagan was.
In reality, Reagan was a third-rate actor who had an economic system named after him: Reaganomics. Go figure! I doubt that the man ever studied any economics in his life!
Reaganomics and Thatcherism should carry much of the blame for the mess we find ourselves in today. For example: Do you really think that we would have seen the current ENORMOUS wealth INEQUALITY without Reagan and Thatcher’s “trickle-down economics” BULLSHIT? And all those tax breaks they gave the already superrich?
Unfortunately, I am ashamed to have to admit it, even I bought in to the bullshit. At that time, I was a huge fan of Thatcher and even of Reagan.
Even though both of them did some good—I wouldn’t deny that—but they also caused a hell of a lot of harm to so many. The UK has never been the same since. Nor has America, for that matter! And now, we have this bullshitter par excellence, Elon Musk, to contend with! From what I have read, he is as high as a kite half the time. Many of his utterances sound like it, too! 😊 — © Mark Alexander
