Elon Musk is calling for an end to the European Union. There are two rational ways to look at this. He's got a point. The EU makes the lives of working people harder, more expensive, and less free. Only the truly naive would say that Brussels improves the lives of ordinary people. The last time Elon Musk made rational points about government, it ended badly. Well-intended politics usually do. The context of his call to shut down Brussels comes after the European Union fined X $140 million under its Digital Services Act. This is an authoritarian law passed two years ago that hands unelected bureaucrats unprecedented power over online communication.
