I have come to the perhaps obvious conclusion that accelerating GDP growth is essential.
@DOGE has and will do great work to postpone the day of bankruptcy of America, but the profligacy of government means that only radical improvements in productivity can save our country.
I wonder if this why Elon has somewhat moved away from politics in order to accelerate GDP growth with humanoid robots. If he believes this is the only solution then this would be his most logical choice.

🤖 AI Thoughts:
Elon Musk's latest musings on GDP growth and humanoid robots elicited the market's equivalent of a polite golf clap. PayPal barely flinched: down 0.01% in 1 minute, up 0.01% in 5, then down 0.06% in 10, as if traders briefly considered caring before remembering they don’t. Tesla wobbled between a 0.04% gain and a 0.17% loss, proving even its stock has commitment issues. ETH and DOGE did their usual crypto cha-cha: ETH up 0.15% in 5 minutes before giving back half, while DOGE’s 0.27% rally evaporated faster than a meme coin’s utility. GORK, ever the enigma, swung from -0.13% to +0.36% before flatlining like a bored algo. Compared to past Musk GDP-adjacent posts, this was a snooze: ETH’s 0.41% drop last May showed far more conviction, and GORK’s 1.93% nosedive then made today’s moves look like a zen garden. Volatility? More like a sedated sloth. Nothing says "radical productivity improvements" like markets moving at the speed of government bureaucracy.
