  • The $13 billion in loans Musk took out have been stuck on banks’ balance sheets.

      Don’t worry, it’s not their money they’re playing with!

        Really, thanks to the superpower they have of using money that doesn’t even exist (Think you could make money if you could make money out of thin air?) it almost isn’t anyone’s money.

        Except when the bill comes due, then it’s the taxpayer’s money. The middle class didn’t need that money anyway.
