The Tesla CEO made the remark in response to a tweet from Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D) after she tweeted criticism of the country’s tax code which she called “rigged.”
Warren added in the tweet that the country should change the code in order to force billionaires like Musk to pay their fair share of taxes instead of “freeloading off of everyone else.”
Let’s change the rigged tax code so The Person of the Year will actually pay taxes and stop freeloading off everyone else. https://t.co/jqQxL9Run6
