Except Trump is a petty moron who is incapable of achieving any of that. He just gave the keys to the henhouse to all the techbro capitalist wolves.

Something tells me they are going to use this as a last ditch effort to make as much money at everyone’s expense.

The fact that Musk has access to the treasury payments system is a massive overstep and conflict of interest. The US people are funding his plans to get to mars and play astronaut while the rest of the country burns.

Just another US grift from Drumpf.

This is a fantastically bad idea. Tech bros don’t need to add their retarded AI to nuclear control systems. Drumpf is bad enough.

• 21% of adults in the US are illiterate in 2024.

• 54% of adults have a literacy below a 6th-grade level (20% are below 5th-grade level).

• Low levels of literacy costs the US up to 2.2 trillion per year

Where does the US rank in literacy?

The US ranks 36th in literacy.

So we are further gutting funding for public schools to encourage Christian charter schools that will teach the Bible instead of science? Private schools don’t have to follow curriculum standards or hire qualified teachers and are run for a profit. So this means a more expensive education that will create more ignorant people via brainwashing and propaganda. I didn’t think it was possible for education in America to get worse.

Paywall.
