Elon Musk Says US Moving Toward Recession, And it’s a “Good Thing”

Billionaire space entrepreneur Elon Musk says that the US is indeed heading for a recession, but he says it won’t last long, and could actually be a “good thing.” 

The controversial Tesla CEO  has gained even more notoriety during his attempted purchase of Twitter, and he has previously predicted an economic recession. Now, he continues to attest that recession is indeed on the way; however, he claims that the upcoming recession is “actually a good thing,” a necessary “rude awakening” after a lax attitude from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Just before the Memorial Day Weekend, a Twitter user asked Musk, “Do you still think we’re approaching a recession?”

“Yes, but this is actually a good thing,” the Tesla CEO responded. “It has been raining money on fools for too long. Some bankruptcies need to happen.”

Musk’s response continued, “Also, all the Covid stay-at-home stuff has tricked people into thinking that you don’t actually need to work hard,” he added, referring to the increasing number of workers working from home during and after the pandemic, and potentially referencing the lax attitude as a result of checks from COVID-19 relief bills. “Rude awakening inbound!”

Both individuals and companies received stimulus payments in the three rounds of COVID-19 relief. Which Musk and others believe have contributed to inflation and the impending recession.

Another Twitter user asked the Space-X CEO how long he thought the recession might last.

“Based on past experience, about 12 to 18 months,” Musk responded. “Companies that are inherently negative cash flow (i.e., value destroyers) need to die, so that they stop consuming resources.”

Musk is not the only one who sees a recession on the horizon. BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, warned this week that the Federal Reserve’s move to increase interest rates to offset record inflation may trigger a recession.

“The Fed’s hawkish pivot has raised the risk that markets see rates staying in restrictive territory,” BlackRock said in a research note. “The year-to-date selloff partly reflects this, yet we see no clear catalyst for a rebound. If they hike interest rates too much, they risk triggering a recession. If they tighten not enough, the risk becomes runaway inflation. It’s tough to see a perfect outcome.”

    I agree the anything that requires government subsidies to survive needs to go,,,,,especially all the bloated “green” companies that can’t make it without government support, but even more importantly it’s any federal government agency that was created after Harry Truman was president that needs to go,,,,and I[m including the Space Force. OSHA and the EPA REALLY need to go. They have done WAY more harm hen good. The department of energy needs to be abolished too and a reinstated NEC put back in it’s place.
