Elon Musk Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize by European Politician
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
No it was not ‘effectively’ what I was saying. And no I don’t need to back up things you think I ‘effectively’ saying. -

You’ve missed the bit where Musk censors the accounts and comments of people who disagree with him. https://news.sky.com/story/amp/elon-musk-accused-of-censoring-right-wing-x-accounts-who-disagree-with-him-on-immigration-13280740 -

It wasn’t all his money, he was backed by the Saudis. Only an idiot would believe they put their money in to promote freedom of speech. Unfortunately there’s no shortage of those. -

I’ll try again. You’ve demonstrated you know how to use the quote function, so please provide a quote of me saying I take tax deductions. We will then decide precisely who it is who is lying. Or you could retract your statement and save us finding out. -

Trump has already effectively done this when he lifted sanction of violent Israeli ‘Settlers’. https://www.axios.com/2025/01/24/trump-lifts-sanctions-israeli-settlers-west-bank -

What tax deductions am I taking? Do you have my tax returns or are you making wild guesses? https://www.investors.com/etfs-and-funds/sectors/sp-500-companies-paid-no-tax/ -

The immigrants being paid low wages are driving up housing costs?! -

Agree, but it’s not just the affordability of housing and wages. Work place benefits have been slashed since the 1980s. Final salary pensions, secure contracts of employment and the first step on the ladder that many young people had access to, real apprenticeships. And of course student grants. Young people today are loaded with costs, risks and uncertainty we older generations never faced. -
It’s a big tell when you can’t deal with a member’s comment and therefore resort attempting to deny the validity of a member’s comments on the basis of what you imagine to be their nationality. I haven’t changed my concern for the well being of Americans one iota, on the other-hand you have. Sorry for pointing out your about face on inflation and the cost of living for millions of Americans. How’s the price of eggs?

Tax deductions are not ‘welfare’. Trump is cutting welfare, he’s not cutting tax deductions. -

Who’s wages? CEO’s are raking it in. Blue collar workers not so. -

I’ve never been on welfare. However, millions rely on it, millions more rely on Medicare. Oh and I don’t need a Social Security check either. Stay lucky. -

The point made was the affordability of housing then and the un affordability now. -

Trump is in the process of gutting welfare programs, freezing funding to schools, disease monitoring, air transport safety, the EPA. It’s a social experiment going on right now. -

They also get the lion’s share of tax breaks which are the single biggest federal budget expenditure. Way more than social security, way more than Medicare, way more than defense: https://www.pgpf.org/article/7-key-charts-on-tax-breaks/
