The government has fired thousands of employees in recent weeks, triggering debates about whether these layoffs are legal, ethical, or even beneficial to taxpayers. Unfortunately, misinformation has flooded the news, with false claims about executive power and misleading promises that these cuts will “save money.”
The reality? These policies won’t reduce federal spending in any meaningful way. Litigation costs alone will skyrocket, and the economic consequences of stripping stable middle-class jobs from communities will ripple across local economies, small businesses, and essential services.
Billionaires like Elon Musk have openly supported this push to shrink the public sector, reinforcing a dangerous narrative that aligns with corporate interests rather than the economic stability of working Americans. Musk and his billionaire class have spent years trying to minimize wages and benefits in the private sector. Now, they’re attacking one of the last remaining institutions that inject money into a broad cross-section of our economy, the government workforce.
This is not about efficiency, it’s about shifting power and wealth further upward. Meanwhile, Musk, Trump, and others are manipulating their followers into believing these moves are good for the economy, when in reality, they resemble the worst robber baron tactics of the Gilded Age.
This series aims to cut through the noise and arm people with facts—not billionaire propaganda. Government jobs are protected by due process for a reason, and understanding why we protect public employees from arbitrary firings is critical in this fight. Stay tuned, we’re just getting started.
