Summary
Elon Musk suggested cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid in a Fox News interview, citing debunked claims about fraud and linking benefits to illegal immigration.
He falsely claimed millions of deceased individuals remain in the Social Security system, a statement previously refuted by officials.
While Trump has promised not to cut entitlement programs, Musk’s remarks indicate they are under threat, potentially impacting millions of Americans.
His rhetoric echoes far-right conspiracy theories, raising concerns about his influence on policy discussions regarding social safety nets.
They’ll just cut it for anybody under 60 or whatever, and their base will cheer them on.
Not if they have been paying into it. At least not unless they get a refund for what they paid into it.

Screw just being paid back. I want decades of interest on that loan I gave the government. If I don’t get at least 10% on my investment I’ll fucking riot.
No you won’t.
🤣 you don’t know anything about me. If I have no retirement to look forward to I have nothing to lose. I know I’m not alone in that sentiment too.
Just because you’re a pussy doesn’t mean everyone else is.
Idk I might 🤷♂️
They call it the “third rail of politics” for a reason.

Exactly, if they can’t hold up their end, it’s time for some old fashioned leg breaking.
