It seems like a weird one to lie about because the Commercial is not terribly difficult compared to the Instrument rating, just a few extra maneuvers and tighter tolerances. That said, most people don't know what it means if you say "I'm a private pilot and have my instrument rating" so I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't fly enough to care so lies about this in everyday life.

Give it to billionaires who will never need to spend it. I don't know how efficient it is, but we already have a system set up for it.

Usually when people are asked when America was Great™ they'll point to the burgeoning middle class of the post-war economy of the 1950s. Sometimes they'll point to separate drinking fountains however we'll ignore racists for now. The economic nationalists won't like it when you point out the thriving economy was partly the result of other economies still receiving from war, but more importantly for the middle class there was a 94% marginal tax rate for income over $200,000 in 1945, which meant dollars were circulating and demand was created for more jobs. The trickle-down clowns who insistent the rich getting richer is good for the economy would be slightly more credible, if they weren't the very same people saying the poor demanding higher wages is bad for the economy. As Nick Hanauer put it:

We plutocrats need to get this trickle-down economics idea behind us; this idea that the better we do, the better everyone else will do. It’s not true. How could it be? I earn 1,000 times the media wage, but I do not buy 1,000 times as much stuff do I? I actually bought 2 pairs of these pants, what my partner Mike calls my manager pants. I could’ve bought 2,000 pairs, but what would I do with them? How many haircuts can I get? How often can I go out to dinner? No matter how wealthy a few plutocrats get, we can never drive a great national economy. Only a thriving middle class can do that.

So you agree tax cuts for the rich are bad, or do you actually believe the wealth inequality and political bribery this enables is a net good? It's clear the trickle-down bullshit doesn't work as evidenced by stagnant wage growth.

I would recommend supporting progressive candidates instead of simping for the people who enacted the laws which have destroyed our middle class. Pointing out corporate Democrats exist and vote with Republicans to protect their shared donors is valid, as long as you can recognize that Republicans cry about the deficit whenever they are not in power, and when in power spend like drunken sailors, increase military spending, and continue to use the deficit they grew as a cudgel to dismantle only the parts of the administrative state they disagree with. I'm not that stupid, and I doubt you are either.

I also don't see how President Musk would ever allow Trump to oversee it.
