Musk Threatens Social Security: A National Crisis?
Elon Musk proposed eliminating hundreds of billions in entitlement spending, falsely linking this to attracting and retaining illegal immigrants, a claim echoing the “Great Replacement” theory. This plan, seemingly targeting waste and fraud, would impact Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, jeopardizing benefits for millions of older and younger Americans. The proposal directly contradicts Trump’s pledge to protect these programs, highlighting a potential conflict in Republican priorities. Such cuts would drastically alter the social safety net and potentially disenfranchise millions of voters.
