the reality is that if you give more money to the people at the bottom, they will buy more drugs and tattoos and mag wheeels and KFC and you (as a country) will get no benefit .
if you allow an entrepreneur (like musk) to hang onto that money, he will build a business and create jobs and help the balance of trade figures and you will get a lot of benefit
say i have a super fast racehorse that earns my farm a heap of cash
should i give every horse the same feed, the same veterinary care, the same attention?
if i do that super fast horse will contribute much less and i will have less money to buy feed for all the slow horses and old horses and sick horses.
far better to pour your energy into elevating the best and then we call benefit
as my recent thread established "rich people are just better people"
poor people , especially the third or fourth generation poor are generally assholes and selfish pricks.
i would support giving resources to new migrants as they can be very ambiotious and have untapped potential
but if you are 3rd or 4 th generational welfare takers, giving you more is rediculous.
much better to give it to new aspirational migrants (especially the chinese and the indians) or leave it with the established stars
The first thing Musk did when he got Twitter was fire the majority of its workforce. The company's been losing value ever since.
The economy is built on people buying things like drugs, tattoos, mag wheeels and KFC. That's what a free market is - people spend their money on stuff they want.
The alternative is command economies like the former Iron Curtain. There, the government decided what people get. This definitely had its benefits - such as universal housing and employment - but it wasn't sustainable to control millions of people who wanted things like Levis and Wham cassettes.
Governments don't provide care to racehorses or businesses, dear. Racehorse owners and businesses employ contractors to do this for them. Government-backed winners rarely last the distance. History is filled with the carcasses of East India and Dutch East Indies Companies.
But good to see you spruiking the big fella's message. Not only have you captured his protectionist ideals, but you've synthesized this with his newfound bromance with Elon and his Nazi-influenced Racehorse Theory.
Where you're off-message, Aquascoot, is the immigrant stuff. If you're in MAGA, you're not technically allowed to say that. Your DL's pitch is Great Replacement Theory. That's where the people you mentioned are being sent in to replace the white man. This is a globalist conspiracy by the leftards to make everybody Mulatto and consent to their socialist One World control.
Having views like yours on immigration place you well outside the tent. You need to understand, dear, the big fella's movement is not a broad church - far from it. Dissenters are put on the RINO list and exiled, usually with death or rape threats.
The big fella demands total control. There is one leader, and that's it. That's what MAGA is.
So good job getting the talking points out, but try to stay on message, okay?
