An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Tell us why Elon Musk needs our Social Security Savings.

I am deeply concerned about the disparities in our tax system, particularly regarding Social Security allocations. Reports indicate that while the average American family pays approximately $17,902 in taxes annually, billionaires like Elon Musk have, in certain years, paid minimal or no federal income taxes. For instance, in 2018, Mr. Musk’s wealth increased significantly, yet he paid no federal income tax. Moreover, there are discussions about reallocating Social Security funds in ways that may benefit the very wealthy. I urge you to clarify why such measures are being considered. Additionally, I am concerned about suggestions that average citizens may need to forgo or reduce their Social Security benefits. Is this to ensure financial security for individuals like Mr. Musk? Given his substantial wealth, is he facing financial difficulties that necessitate such measures? I respectfully request a detailed response addressing these concerns. It is imperative that our tax and social welfare systems operate equitably, ensuring that all citizens contribute their fair share and receive appropriate benefits. Thank you for your attention to this.
