This but also capitalism has reached a very late stage in the US and Bernie-esque policies, while probably still achievable in a practical sense, are probably enough of a threat to the interests of capital that it might have motivated Business Plot reboot or it’s possible that it would disturb the fragile balance of the market enough that it might be enough to cause the house of cards to start collapsing.
Think like if the US nationalised healthcare or intervened in the real estate market and started providing public housing - there’s a non-zero chance that this would pop a bubble in the market that would cause a ripple effect throughout the other bubbles like in the finance industry such as BlackRock which might just level entire sections of the US economy.
I’m lowkey hoping that Tesla goes belly-up in the near future and this is the catalyst for exactly what I’m describing above.
I hadn’t actually considered the poetic aspect of that until you mentioned it lol.
Could you imagine the psychic damage that Elon Musk would sustain if that happened?
The dude was so wounded when he got booed at that surprise appearance at a Dave Chapelle show that his staff nearly called a wellness check on him.
If Tesla not only sinks but it takes down a large part of the economy, or maybe it even levels the US economy, he would absolutely get scapegoated for it. If his reputation took a hit like that I think it would break his brain permanently.

America dying in a blowing up tesla would be extremely funny. I would be laughing in the bread line.
