The Justice Department warned Elon Musk that his $1 million giveaway could come with a prison sentenceāand it appears heās actually paying attention.
After receiving a warning from the Justice Department, Elon Musk has stopped his $1 million giveaway to swing voters from his super PAC.
The tech CEO pledgedĀ SaturdayĀ to give away the hefty sum each day to one registered voter in a battleground state who signed America PACās proāFirst and Second Amendment pledge. Every day since then, a winner has beenĀ announced: three Pennsylvania voters and one North Carolina voter.
However, the move immediately raised legal questions, as itās a federal crime to pay someone to register to vote, punishable by a fine of $10,000, five years in prison, or both. Experts were divided, with Muskās plan falling into a legalĀ gray areaĀ at best. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro called the move ādeeply concerning,ā and author Stephen King accused Musk of āpaying to register Republicans.ā
If by reform you mean we need to just get rid of people who are too wealthy to get away with crime, then yesā¦ Any measure to accomplish this is acceptable by me
Absolutely goddamn tax them out of existence. Yesterday.
Tax, is that a euphemism for guillotine?
Guillotines were considered somewhat painless, I am far more malicious. Get a length of rope and a shitty executioner, I want em to suffocate.
While that idea does get my motor running, Iād be fine with not giving them any attention, just doing the job and moving on like they never existed. Also, deleting their Wikipedia pages.
Why did we ever do away with burying people up to their chins next to ant pilesā¦?
