It’s time to stop burning Teslas and give Elon Musk what he really wants: A taxpayer-funded trip to Mars.
America can finance a Space X mission to colonize the red planet with all of Musk’s baby mommas, and all of Musks spawn, as well as the kind of sycophants who like to suck up way past the moon.
Martians, if there are any, probably won’t want Musk. But if the South African can come to the U.S. illegally, and end up owning the White House a few decades later, he can run Mars, too.
America has long ignored the widening wealth gap that has culminated in billionaires overtaking democracy. Today, it’s at the point where the richest man on Earth is ripping resources away from the poorest people on the planet – and doing it with a chainsaw.
Some view Musks efforts as simply reducing government waste. Other’s see them as a reckless purge of potential political opposition.
Arguably government needs a haircut, but not a scalping.

This is the kind of sci-fi narrative that would best be played out on Mars.
