Unelected Billionaire Elon Musk Takes Even More Power in Treasury Grab

from The Socialist Program with Brian Becker · host The Socialist Program with Brian Becker

On today's episode Nicole Roussell and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss Elon Musk's promises to cancel contracts, grants, and myriad payments from the U.S. Treasury Department. U.S. capitalism has already allowed Musk to control hundreds of billions of dollars and therefore control lots of our society's production—this is the billionaire agenda, which gives him even more control of our resources and U.S. residents even less.
