So Musk and the creepy Elonjugend can soon look into people's finances and go look for ''fraud'' in welfare and other such programs. I have two words for people that think its a good idea for Musk and his Elonjugend to look for ''fraud'' related to welfare or governmental support of the poor.
Toeslagen affaire! Should this be too Dutch for you then the three words I'll have for you are ''Post office scandal''
In general actively hunting on your own citizens to find ''fraud'', under the expectation you WILL find fraud, and under the ideological lense that the lower and middle class should justify and claw for any penny and deserve to get crushed if they cannot do this perfectly, is a recipe for abuse of power and complete disaster.
Because we've seen where this will lead to. Governments making mistakes, unfairly accusing people, being unwilling to admit they made wrongful accusations and then using all assets of the state to crush those that they can't even prove did ''fraud''. And somehow those checks and mistakes always intensified when a person's name sounded foreign....
And that's from governments that are not defined by extreme oligarchical control and even more extreme racism and incompetence. You think the racists Elonjugend won't be encouraged by Trump to maybe check those ''lazy'' black people extra thoroughly? You really think an administration defined by unqualified people and incompetence won't make mistakes? You really think Trump and Elon would admit they made mistakes or even care? And do you think a government all about extracting as much money going to the poor and delivering it to the rich won't be extremely ruthless in doing so?
Mark my words. A decade from now we'll hear all about horror stories of the Trump administration actively hunting on their citizens and sending them into financial ruin just to be able to claim they found ''fraud''
It happened to your betters. It will happen to you, and it likely won't even be a horrible accident such as with us.
