That money will come out of Musk’s and other billionaires’ pockets. They’ve been dreaming of the day they get to buy their own armies, beholden only to them.
High doubt. Musk and other billionaires don’t have that money. They have shares of companies that are worth a lot… today.
They are rich, they do have money, a lot. But most of it comes from those shares. Is tesla’s shares drop to near 0 value, musk will have shit.
Also, the us can’t make any primary goods on their own. Whose iron are they gonna buy? Whose aluminium? Rare earths? Hell, even the oil will be a problem. Not to talk about electronics; do you think china won’t take taiwan if all this happens?
