Summary
Elon Musk, serving as “Co-President” under Donald Trump, proposed eliminating all federal regulations by default, arguing they restrict freedom.
In a leaked call with Republican lawmakers, including Senators Joni Ernst and Mike Lee, Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy saw Trump’s second term and a conservative Supreme Court as a unique chance to deregulate government permanently.
Critics argue such actions would be unconstitutional and dangerous, risking public health and safety.
Ernst later defended the plan on Fox News, calling it necessary “disruption.”
Hope y’all like dying. Because that’s what regulations prevent.
The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) includes the laws governing the Food and Drug Administration. These laws are written in the blood of the exploited and vulnerable, like the victims of the Tuskeege Syphillis Experiment. Many of these regulations are specifically written to keep pharmaceutical and food companies from cutting corners in product development, testing, and manufacturing.
It’s not a necessary disruption. It’s going to kill a lot of vulnerable people.
I’ve raged and seethed about Neuralink so many times. There are so many obstacles needed to be overcome for a true Brain Computer Interface to work. Unless the company has magically solved some of the hardest problems in bioengineering, they’re just sacrificing monkeys for sport.
Well, then the US can forget about ever exporting anything and keep their unregulated vehicles.
This guy is such an amazing inspiration. It’s almost magical how he can work full time, plus weekends, in office at DOGE, Tesla, Neuralink, Boring Co., SpaceX, Twitter, and Evil Corp. I can only dream of having that kind of work ethic, intelligence, and charisma.
He also has a top character in path of exile 2 despite not knowing how to play and the default language being Chinese and reference on the account referring to Elon in the third person. Either he’s billionaire Nazi Hermione or he’s a walking disappointment surrounded by more talented people with no dignity… Like all the famous Nazis.
For every regulation that applies to you as a regular citizen there’s probably 500 that apply to businesses. Musk is doing it for himself.
I imagine Musk is far too big of a pussy to actually abolish all Federal regulations. And if he does I’m installing an auto sear, a suppressor, a short barrel, and a pistol brace all on my gun at once. It’ll only take a couple of us doing that for you to see the fastest U-turn on that idea in history.
I can only imagine that the intent is to leave all of the regulations that restrict personal individual freedom in place and just gut all the ones preventing big businesses from exploiting you however they want. Or maybe just specifically the ones that are holding Musk’s own enterprises back, which is even more plausible.
