Elon Musk warns US will be 'toast' if 1 problem isn't solved -- says the government is 'basically unfixable [View all]

Speaking at the recent “All In Summit,” Musk described his stint in Washington as “a hell of a side quest” and didn’t hold back when asked what he’d learned [1].

“The government is basically unfixable,” he declared, drawing laughter — and then applause — from the audience.

According to DOGE’s website, the initiative has racked up an estimated $206 billion in savings, though critics have questioned the math [2].

For Musk, the real problem is America’s ballooning debt.
