If there was ever a symbol of why we need to get big money out of politics, reform campaign financing, stop conflicts of interest, and tax great wealth, Elon Musk is it.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?
