X Users Give Liz Warren a Reality Check After Meltdown Over Musk’s Trillionaire Status
“The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk’s level of wealth. We need a wealth tax.”
After news broke that Elon Musk had officially become the world’s first trillionaire, it wasn’t the least bit surprising to see Democrat politicos pounce and seize on the talking point that it was actually a bad thing, and that Musk should be punished for it by paying more of what they viewed as his “fair share.”
There was Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), whose net worth is around $2.5 million and who owns three homes:
Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.
If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.

There was his fellow Democratic Socialist, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, whose rich parents have a second luxury home in Uganda:

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who owns two homes and whose net worth is reportedly around $12 million, had a bit of a mini-meltdown, posting a video of her reaction on X, claiming Musk has been the beneficiary of a “rigged economy,” and calling for a wealth tax:
“We’re living in a time when more and more people are just hanging on by their fingernails to survive in this economy, and Elon Musk has more money and more wealth than anyone in human history,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said in a video posted to social platform X. “I want to be clear — this is not just some fluke. It is a feature of a rigged economy.”

As Legal Insurrection‘s Leslie Eastman pointed out in her Friday rundown of the Musk/SpaceX news, “Not only did CEO Elon Musk become a trillionaire, but many SpaceX employees are now incredibly wealthy from the stock they earned by being part of this success.”
This is one of the many points made by critics on X in response to Warren’s tweets:
Elon employs ~160,000 Americans and in one morning created thousands of millionaires…
You have done nothing for America. https://t.co/ZlUWpP7Vvt

Elon has created thousands of millionaires. The only millionaire you’ve created is yourself. Elon is a wealth creator. You are a looter. While your title is POLITICIAN, your real profession should be called THIEF. https://t.co/WQNWGoSUL9

You could give “the typical American” 11 MILLION years and they still would not create PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, OpenAI, xAI, Neuralink, Boring Company, Ad Astra, all while single-handedly saving free speech for all mankind while lifting humanity out of the grip of Big Tech tyranny. https://t.co/QBJH2ud7jI

I honestly can’t believe the audacity of these people who enrich themselves without adding a scrap of value to the world to complain like this.

American is such a land of opportunity that:
1. Elon could come here with nothing and build companies that improve the lives of hundreds of millions of people.
And
2. Elizabeth could be in the U.S. Senate with a kindergarten level of understanding of the real world. https://t.co/58FtFM7uin

What really bugs the Democrats is that Musk refuses to aplogize for earning his wealth.
A white chick claiming minority privilege is far worse than Musk making billions. Repent and make it right with the people you screwed over Fauxahontas.
But// high cheek bones and pow wow chow….
Jealous Mamdummy, Lieawatha, and hypocrite millionaire “socialist” Bernweed.
We already have a wealth tax, the covetous communist graduated income tax theft system.
Musk was inspired and productive. What have you three cockroaches done besides sucking the blood from taxpayers, sewing race and class division, and flooding America with foreign leeches?
No, income != wealth. An income tax is levied on money as it comes in, which is a one-time event. And since it taxes an event rather than an object, it’s not a direct tax (at least in the case of income not derived from property). A wealth tax is levied not on an event — the earning of money — but on an object — the wealth itself. The same wealth is taxed over and over, if you still have it. It works just like property tax, but for everything you own, not just real estate. And that makes it a direct tax, which states are allowed to impose but if congress imposes a federal one it must be “apportioned”, and no one seems to understand what that means.
We need a politician tax. They create nothing and F up everything.
Liz and Bernie have been swapping clothes.
Gives all new meaning to “trickle-down economics.”
Someone help me here.
How can someone who makes $174000 a year get to become worth $12 mil?
Good investments?
Pow Wow Chow royalties?
Pelosi is guiding her?
We need to look at her books.
She and her husband are both Harvard law professors or she was before getting elected. The pay is good and it isn’t heavy lifting allowing time for other profitable pursuits. In addition I think Harvard gave her something like 1M for housing, Cambridge real estate has appreciated, It would not be surprising if her net work is 12M. What is surprising is that it hasn’t gone up since that figure was first disclosed.
She also used to have income from private practice. Though there was a whole fuss about where she was licensed to practice.
Yes she did but I don’t recall it as being extensive. A couple of flipped houses for a relative. An asbestos case (she was attorney of the company), Maybe a few others. She also worked for Obama admin on consumer affairs agency but I;m not sure what she was paid.
I’ve always assumed her net worth was joint. If so I wouldn’t be surprised if her husband contributed more than 50%, She’s no Pelosi.
Let’s not forget inflation. A gilded age titan worth $25 million in 1900 represented a much larger percentage of GDP than a billionaire today.
Guess they can now lighten up on the billionaires.
The Democrats used to attack millionaires until all their polls became millionaires.
Then, they attacked billionaires until billionaires started funding their candidates.
Now, they have switched to trillionaires.
Warren’s a fraud and a crackpot. She needs to be put in a mental hospital.
By what I’ve seen in the Senate, she is in one.
Rigged economy? Sure, kinda but not the way Sen Warren and Sen Sanders believe. The real problem is growth of gov’t, a $39+ Trillion nation debt (on the books, doesn’t include the 3-5X in unfunded liabilities) the roughly $1.2 Trillion in interest costs and failure to live within the $5 Trillion in Federal revenue. That’s a direct result of our establishment politicians and leadership class to scale back their pie in the sky budgetary gimmicks promising future ‘cuts’ instead of current year…the future cuts always become deferred to the next Congress/Admin b/c to make them today would be politically inconvenient. We spent under $5 Trillion in FY 2019, which wasn’t exactly the dark ages. We could easily get our budget outlay under our annual revenue.
Leave it to Democrats and Socialists (redundant, I know) to think success and wealth creation are problems, and more government and higher taxes are the solution.
Elon did not come here with nothing. That fiction should be dispelled.
There is no shame in using the life and fortune his parents built to continue to achieve. The fact that we must act as if every rich person is a grass roots genius and not the product of an excellent family is just chasing modern folklore.
Google is your friend – unless you’re an NPC just repeating talking points and ignoring any contradictory factoids.
For one example I’ve repeatedly seen…..
“His dad was a rich owner of an Emerald mine”
“Therefore he was rich.”
His dad dad was upper middle class – by South African standards – and DID make an investment
In a (Namibian?) Emerald mine – which paid off.
His dad wasn’t a multi-millionaire, he divorced Elon’s mom – and Elon was awarded to his mom – who wasn’t able to pay Elon’s college tuition – which was why Elon was $100,000 in (student loan) debt when he immigrated to the US from Canada.
When Elon immigrated to Canada his property consisted of $2k in cash and a backpack full of books.
His Dad did invest $28k in one of his first (pre PP) start-ups – it was not a gift or loan – it was an investment which I’m sure his dad never regretted.
To any Musk Derangement Syndrome sufferer out there I would issue a challenge – with no job and only $2k in cash and a backpack of books – move to any state in the US and do 1/100th of what Elon has accomplished either monetarily or in terms of advancing technology or making OTHER people rich.
Yep. It isn’t only his innate intelligence or ‘vision’ that’s made him so extraordinarily successful. He takes risks. He overcomes setbacks and even outright failures. The key IMO is his work ethic, determination and willingness to keep your nose on the grindstone
The valedictorian of my HS class, was a National Merit scholar, one of four in our class. She accepted a.scholarship to Vanderbilt then to Duke Law School. Practiced less than 5 years and now grows/sells rare flowers. She had the intelligence to do anything she wanted and really leave a mark on the world but she didn’t like the stress/backstabbing of big law firms, weighed the pros/cons and bailed out to do something else that won’t leave much of a ripple but does make her happy. Musk by contrast thrives on the chaos, sleepless nights, finding and solving problems. That’s the key ingredient.
Google is my friend Elon isn’t yours
Takes guts to resort to snark when you just got your ass handed to you.
We need an insufferable and ignorant leftist twit tax…especially for those who get paid via the U.S. taxpayers.
$62,000…
The median wage of an American worker.
$12 million… Chief Gray Beaver’s net worth.
How long would it take an American worker to amass $12,000,000?
193 years.
Shut your fking c0ckhole Elizabitch.
” Chief Gray Beaver’s net worth”
BWAAHAAHAA!! 😂😂
Don’t ask me how much Chief Gray Beaver is “worth”.
IDK the ‘Boomer Karen Final Boss’ might have some value as a curiosity.
Warren is very concerned someone with more cash than Soros will outspend him, and the lying, total BS left wing talking points will be rendered less effective on the unwashed masses that make up the left wing base.
“When people are presented with the alternatives of hating themselves for their failure or hating others for their success, they seldom choose to hate themselves.”
Thomas Sowell
In Rome. Caesars would often target wealthy Romans …falsely accusing them or dispense with basics…kill them and take their wealth. This tactic was shown in the series “Rome”. I don’t know how Musk’s financial set up is but I wouldn’t put it past Warren to be part of the group cheering on a death tax should something happen to Elon. Warren is a thief ..stealing ancestry not hers, and and coveting someone else’s worth created by smarts and hard work. The Seven Deadly Sins are the planks of the Dem Party.
I believe this was shown in the very fine PBS series I Claudius and Claudius the God, It’s pretty old now but worth watching and the books are worth reading,
Musk’s companies are gold egg laying geese.
Stupid socialists like Warren want to kill them to get all the eggs. As the story says you will end up with nothing but a dead goose.
If Musk donated to Chief Shrieking Crow’s campaign and hired her husband for $400,000/yr, she would be chanting praises.
The odious Fauxcahontas demonstrates by her idiotic and embittered Twitter statement that she doesn’t understand the difference between capital gains and salary income.
Fauxcahontas collects a taxpayer-funded paycheck, yet has somehow amassed a ~$12 million net worth. How many companies, American jobs and collective prosperity for individual investors, retirees, pension funds and endowments have Fauxcahontas, Comrade Sanders, Newsolini, Occasional-Cortex, Mamdani and the rest of the vile, stupid, evil, lazy, private sector-avoiding and fiscally illiterate communist/Islamofascist/Muslim supremacist Dhimmi-crats created, collectively?
None.
Reporter: “Sen. Warren, Elon Musk is now a trillionaire – what say you?”
Warren: “That means he stole my land and killed my people!”
Reporter: “And … those people are …?”
It would be more accurate to say that Musk controls about a trillion dollars of active innovating companies. It’s not like he’s using this capital in the manner of a Gates and others who stopped actively building useful things and mostly use their money for tax-advantaged global “philanthropies”, personal luxuries, and power-mongering. And, by the way. in inflation-adjusted net worths, the bjg 20th-Century industrialists actually controlled more of U.S. GDP.
Maybe if Pocahontas looked like Kelsey Asbile she could’ve gotten away with being a pretendian, however she looks like the goose stepping Cherokee expelling Saxon that she is:
Musk is going to buy his friend Donald Trump a nice house with some of that money — plus a nice senate to match.
Musk made himself a competent steward of various technologies. I understand his work has also made others millionaires. Yet, who has Big-Chief-Pimple-On-Her-Tongue Warren made better off? Only herself.
But, the bigger issues is that our current political climate makes envy and coveting one’s neighbor’s wealth into virture. The rot starts far lower in society that the likes of Lizzie Warren.
“The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk’s level of wealth.”
And they still wouldn’t make it, because you’d have taxed it all away from them.
Gray Beaver no like-um Elon.🪶
