Billionaire Elon Musk has made a name for himself recently by mocking the left’s nonsensical multitrillion-dollar economic agenda. Two major media personalities have said he’s a good fit to replace Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
Forbes Media Chairman Steve Forbes and Fox Business host Larry Kudlow both gave the world’s richest man their endorsement for the top position at the Fed during the Dec. 16 edition of Kudlow. During the beginning of his segment with Forbes, Kudlow asked: “[W]hy doesn't Jay Powell and the Fed have the backbone to take aggressive action to curb record-high inflation? By the way, if they don't, it could derail the whole economy.” He then gave his hot take: “[F]or all these reasons — you know, as I said last night — I prefer Elon Musk as the Fed chair.” Forbes chimed in later, saying “I’d vote for his confirmation. You would too.”

I don’t think Elon Musk wants the cut in pay, nor will this move help him with his goal of reaching Mars.
Steve Forbes and Larry Kudlow have no say in the matter.
Nope, I agree, and I don't think he'd have interest, whatsoever, of entering that swamp.
What a great idea! The purportedly world’s wealthiest man, though granted likely the brightest of the intel agency cutouts with deep family histories plucked from Stanford to front the infusion of their controlled tech into the global economy, to run the world’s most successful and destructive global private banking cabal!
Amusing symbolic suggestion.
Doesn’t matter who runs the FED, the FED is in a jail it can’t leave thanks to decades of overspending by government.
The FED is like MASH unit, it just does triage these days.

Yep. Biden will appoint Bart Simpson Fed Chairman before he appoints Elon Musk.
Side note to Mr. Biden: Do not appoint Bart Simpson. He is not a real person.
Lol!
But it would be cool if his mad genius were turned against the creeps in power and he figured out some way to reduce them to a smoking ruin without them seeing it coming (one can dream).
It would make Jamie Dimon cry...
No better way to silence an adversary than to put them squarely in the path of endless allegations and investigations.
Soon there will no longer be a Federal Reserve. Its a short term job.
Would this be an OK place to say fire Fauci and hire Ben Carson?
I thought you said Trump rolled the Fed into the Treasury. If true then there should be no job at all.
It’s not like members of the Federal reserve board meet every day. They only meet once in a while to screw around with interest rates, buy worthless US bonds, or expand the money supply. That only occupies a few days a month.
