if @elonmusk paid 100% of his net worth ($1.4 trillion) as a tax it would only cover federal government spending for 77 days. this isn’t a tax problem…
If Elon Musk paid my ultra-millionaire wealth tax, we could pay for child care for all three and four year olds in America.View quoted post on X
government destroys value.
in this case, the value of an American education was destroyed in ~40 years.
if there’s no marketplace for customers (parents of students) to demand value (quality of education for price paid) by simply going to another service provider (school or educator), it is inevitable that costs will go up and quality will go down.
this is true of any service provided by government, which effectively grants itself a monopoly, deleting the opportunity for other service providers to compete in offering better value to customers/citizens…

When Jimmy Carter purchased the teachers’ union’s endorsement in 1979 by establishing the Department of Education, the USA was #1 in education.View quoted post on X
46 years and $4.1 trillion dollars later, the USA is #40. We are, however, #1 in cost per student.
never thought i’d say this… i wholeheartedly agree with elizabeth warren.
also, term limits.
being an elected representative should not be a career. there should be no path for wealth creation or perpetual income from representing the interests of the people, in service of the people.
private citizens should enter public service, leave, and return to private life, as the founders intended.
“politician” has become a lucrative career option for those skilled at public oration and persuasion.
while they may represent their constituents’ interests, the reelection mandate incentivizes short-term decision-making and voting, often counter to the long-term interests of the people.
and having unfettered private market access while holding the privileged position of influence over, and non-public knowledge of, those markets will inevitably incentivize bad behavior, to the politician’s benefit, and the public’s detriment.
these ideals may be too far-fetched for our modern political machinery to consider - they would be self-defeating of the machines themselves - but the citizens can still be deafeningly loud in demanding them.
thx senator warren for getting this half-right.. also, term limits.
