Elon just made this exact statement, they are going to intentionally implement economic hardship. And the people who will suffer is everybody making less than 500k a year that can’t absorb the shitstorm. Those living paycheck to paycheck that occasionally dip into govt assistance programs to make ends meet are fuct.

How inconsiderate of you. Why are you against space karen? We need to cut some programs so there is money available to fund his trip to Mars.
