You think you know how the American government handles your hard-earned cash?
Think again. Elon Musk, the cost-cutting czar, has uncovered something that’ll make your head spin.
Claims to have found at least 14 magic money computers in various federal departments, including Treasury, Defense, and Health and Human Services.
These computers, Musk says, can conjure up payments out of thin air.
An absolute bombshell from @elonmusk on the latest episode of Verdict.
He reveals there are 14 magic money computers in the federal government that send money out of nothing.

The magician’s hat
Now, you might be thinking, but wait, don’t all these government computers talk to each other, keeping track of funds?
Not quite, according to Musk. He says they’re often off by 5% to 10%, which is why he calls them magic money computers. 5% sounds like a small amount, but on this level?
We’re likely talking about $billions. It’s like they’re playing a game of financial magic tricks.
And let’s not forget, Bitcoin advocates are already rubbing their hands together, saying, Bitcoin fixes this.
They’ve long argued that Bitcoin’s capped supply protects against the devaluation of fiat currency, which can be printed endlessly.
Phantom people?
But here’s the real deal, as Musk also discovered that some government departments have more media, software subscriptions, and credit cards than actual employees. We’re talking up to double the number of people working there.
He believes about 80% of this is just waste and incompetence, not some sinister plot.
For example, companies are sometimes sent money by mistake, and nobody bothers to ask for it back.
It’s like they’re saying, “Oh, you got some extra cash? Keep it, buddy!” My only question is why doesn’t this happen to us?
Optimalization is bad?
Musk’s efforts to cut costs have come with a price, though. Tesla facilities have been vandalized as part of a “Take down Tesla” movement punishing his cost-cutting measures.
It seems not everyone is a fan of his magic money hunt, and they can mobilize the useful idiots. But hey, at least he’s shaking things up.
