Ro "The Robber" Khanna vs Elon Musk on USAID Cuts & Wealth Taxes | 1787

Ro Khanna says tax Elon Musk and the billionaires. But what happens when the "wealth tax" becomes government ownership? In this Good Morning Liberty episode, Nate and Chuck break down socialism's rise inside Democratic politics, the "fair share" tax argument, Ro Khanna's fight with Elon Musk, USAID cuts, DOGE, student loan debt, and why wealth taxes sound simple until you look at how assets actually work. They also explain the difference between free market capitalism and the crony capitalism Americans are angry about, why politicians never use new taxes to lower the deficit, and how "just pay with shares" turns into the government owning pieces of private companies.
