ELON MUSK: "Probably the biggest danger for AI and robotics, going wrong is government. The way people who are opposed to corporations or worried about corporations, should really worry most about government, because government is just a corporation in the limit. Government is just the biggest corporation with a... monopoly on violence. I always find it strange where people would think corporations are bad, but the government is good, when government is simply the biggest and worst corporation. I actually think that is the thing to be worried about. It's like the government could potentially use AI and robotics to suppress the population. I think that, like, if you have a limited government, you limit the powers of government, which is what the US Constitution is intended to do, then you're probably gonna have a better outcome than if you have more government."show more

Elon Musk: Maybe the biggest danger associated with AI and robotics is that governments use them to suppress the population. “Maybe the biggest danger for AI and robotics going wrong is government. People who are opposed to corporations or worried about corporations should really worry the most about government, because government is just a corporation in the limit. Government is just the biggest corporation with a monopoly on violence. I always find it a strange dichotomy where people would think corporations are bad, but the government is good, when the government is simply the biggest and worst corporation. But people have that dichotomy. They somehow think at the same time the government can be good, but corporations bad. And this is not true. Corporations have better morality than the government. That is the thing to be worried about. The government could potentially use AI and robotics to suppress the population. That is a serious concern.” Interview with John Collison and Dwarkesh Patel, February 5, 2026

Elon Musk: The government is a monopoly that can't go bankrupt – until it has extracted all the money from the population. "I think there are roles for the government that make sense. I don't think we necessarily want a private army or a private police force. I think there are certain things that are probably the right role for the government. But anything done by the government is going to be inefficient. Because the government is a monopoly. People who don't like corporations should not somehow think that the government is much, better because the government is a corporation in the limit. It's the ultimate corporation. But at least, private corporations can go bankrupt. And the government cannot go bankrupt unless the people go bankrupt. Basically, unless it exhausts extracting money from the population." Interview with The Babylon Bee, December 22, 2021

Elon Musk: I think I’m pretty moderate. I'm not an extreme libertarian. “I think there are roles for the government that make sense. I don't think we necessarily want a private army or private police force. I think there are certain things that are probably the right role for the government. But anything done by the government is going to be inefficient because the government is a monopoly. People that don't like corporations should not somehow think that the government is much better because the government is a corporation in the limit. It is the ultimate corporation with a monopoly on violence. So I think the right role for the government is to act in a regulatory capacity. But we should aspire to have the government be a limited actor in the economy. So you could say what percentage of economic output should be governed, maybe a third or something like that. Once you start getting above 50% government, I think that's problematic. You can look at countries like East and West Germany and North and South Korea, and there was just essentially an arbitrary line drawn out to divide the countries. And East Germany was 100% government. West Germany was probably at least 40% government – they're relatively socialist. And yet the GDP per capita of West Germany was, I think, five times higher than East Germany. So that just shows you just how big of a difference it is if you have something that's close to half government versus 100% government. The private sector is probably a factor of 10 more efficient than the government. If you have a monopolistic private corporation, then the forcing function for serving the customer is weak. But at least private corporations can go bankrupt, and the government cannot go bankrupt unless the people go bankrupt. Like, basically unless it exhausts extracting money from the population.” Interview with The Babylon Bee The Babylon Bee, December 2021

Elon Musk: I'm a proponent of smaller government, not bigger government. “I'm a proponent of smaller government, not bigger government. So, if somebody's a proponent of more government programs and bigger government, and they see, hey, DOGE is cutting all these government programs, then they'll be fundamentally opposed to that because they just think the government should do more things. I guess that's just a fundamental ideological opinion. But my frank opinion of the government is that the government is just like the DMV that got big, okay. So when you say, like, let's have the government do something, you should think, do you want the DMV to do it?” Interview with CBS News, May 27, 2025

Reporter: Are you concerned about the use of AI in mass surveillance or autonomous killing machines, which Anthropic wanted to have veto power over? Murphy: Yeah, Anthropic is right in the objections that they raised, and it should be bone-chilling that this administration is using the power of the government to try to cripple an American corporation. What they’re saying is that if you don’t support us politically, we’re going to put you out of business. Most big corporations do business with the federal government, and the government always has the ability to effectively shut down a company. But we’ve never allowed that to happen based on a political difference between that company and the administration.

One of John McAfee's final messages to the world: "Some of you may be living an existence of dissatisfaction... of emptiness... of longing." "This sense of longing... is really your loss of freedom. And it is freedom for which you yearn." "And you have none in this government. A government... which started out with the people being free and the government being our servants. It has become the government is free... and it's the people that are the servants." "You have woken up to your reality. That is what you are feeling." "Wake up a bit more and do something about it."

David Friedberg: Through Zero-Based Budgeting, DOGE is Compelling Americans to Ask the Fundamental Question of Government On E214, david friedberg broke down the impact Department of Government Efficiency and Elon Musk are having: "If you zoom out on what DOGE is doing, I think the best way to describe it is zero-based budgeting." " In organizations that go through zero-based budgeting, you do a cycle, typically annually, where you take all of your OpEx, all of your expenses in running a company down to the studs." "You take it down to zero, and you rebuild it up..." " They're doing a zero-based budgeting on the federal government." "They're looking at every line item and they're asking the fundamental question, which I don't think we talk about in the public discourse enough, which is, 'What is the essential role of government?'" "And there is a great debate to be had around that point." "Should the government be providing humanitarian aid in international markets?" "Should the government be providing security to nations that can't provide security for themselves?" "Should the government be providing loans for people to go to sh*tty universities?" " Should the government be providing loans for people to buy homes that are overpriced?" "And as we start to ask the questions of how we're spending money, I think it ends up leading to the most important questions, which is what is the essential role of government?" "Which I think is the debate that needs to be had in order for the democracy to last."

Elon Musk: All government spending is taxation. “The reality is that all government spending is taxation. People will think, well, government spending and taxation are somehow separate, but they're not. All government spending is taxation because the deficit is what results in inflation. And inflation is a de facto tax because it causes all prices to rise, and people trying to just live their lives have a lot of difficulty. But inflation, throughout history, has been used as a pernicious tax because it's like one degree removed, so people don't feel it directly. And then the politicians will try to blame it on something else. But it's all about government spending. Government spending is what drives inflation. So the key is we've got to reduce the government spending and if we don't, we're going to go bankrupt as a country. End of story.” Town Hall Harrisburg, October 19, 2024
