which Elon Musk should we believe? In February, he called the U.S. Agency of International Development, USAID, "corrupt", "beyond repair," and "a ball of worms" that needs to be eliminated. He claimed that there is a "gigantic fraud loophole" where government funds given to NGOs lack sufficient oversight. In March, Elon Musk called Social Security "the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time," and policy followed his comments. Then this week he said that: "If the massive deficit spending continues, there will only be money for interest payments and nothing else: no Social Security, no medical, no defense, nothing." This week he said about the big, ugly bill: "I am sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination." Which Elon Musk do you believe? The erratic rhetoric and policies of this administration are becoming clear to all who watch.
