... I've yet to hear anyone address: How are all the state-run unemployment agencies going to handle the tidal wave of claims from now-jobless skilled workers and functionaries that are descending on offices across the country? Add to that the inevitable slashing of federal funding to the states, and there just might be a bit of a problem, doncha think?
Hmmm... it'd be fun to watch Musk get tag-teamed in a cage match with an endless line of civil servants he fired. I'd definitely pay to see that!
