Elon Musk calls for Congress to throw out Biden's entire Build Back Better bill: 'Don't pass it' "If this was a company, it would be a $3 trillion loss," he said, addressing the federal government's level of spending.

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said Congress should "can" President Joe Biden's multitrillion dollar Build Back Better Act, which Democrats are seeking to pass with budget reconciliation to avoid relying on votes from Republicans.

"Honestly, I would just can this whole bill," said Musk, ranked number two on the 2021 Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans. "Don't pass it. That's my recommendation."

$3 trillion? That’s how much a business would lose. The govt will lose double that.

The problem here is that Musk makes business sense but this is government nonsense so it will be passed.

Elon has been brutally funny and poignant with his tweets the last couple of days, and his interview earlier today? Brutal.

If the FAA starts playing hardball with SpaceX' Starship program, WE'LL ALL KNOW WHY. But we ALSO KNOW that NASA ABSOLUTELY NEEDS SpaceX' innovation and remarkably cost-efficient logistics, production, and launch vehicle capabilities. Check mate!

I tip my hat to you, Elon.. YOU GOT GUTS!

When Elon speaks its kind of like the E.F. Hutton days. People listen and pay attention.

Thanks, Elon!

Only the government can run a $3 trillion dollar loss. And further state that it will be cost free and require no new revenue.

The Assistant Democrats who voted for the infrastructure Trojan horse knew they were enabling this bigger, worse bill.
