Elon Musk is already being sued over the ultimatum he issued to federal workers over the weekend.

The Associated Press reports that the State Democracy Defenders Fund filed a newly amended lawsuit in a federal court in California on behalf of unions, businesses, veterans, and conservation organizations saying that Musk’s instructions for federal workers to list and explain five accomplishments from the previous week, or risk losing their jobs, violated the law.

Hey if we seized his and other US oligarchs wealth in the same way folks did Russian oligarchs (yachts, etc), how much of our government debt could we pay off? Anyone do the math?

I ask after hearing about $5b going to Ukraine from seized wealth.

US debt is important, it's our world currency. We'd be able to pay off a presumably significant enough portion of it to ensure our world currency is revalued.
