Any regular person who needs security clearance for work feels like they are walking on eggshells if they smoked weed in the past two years when they apply for it and are technically committing a federal crime if they haven’t abstained from basically everything besides nicotine and alcohol. Elon Musk getting TS while talking about recreational drug use on twitter, he might as well be rubbing his penis on the face of every American, but this country is so cucked every citizen might as well be begging for the next turn.

Why would we give security clearance to wealthy people?

They can literally move where they please and nothing would affect them. There's no incentive for them to be loyal. Is it our bribe? The public giving their ego a good stroking?

Musk could move 50 fucking times this year and then build his own country and then finance a personal military, but let's give him access to our secrets.

It's about God damn time. They have known about these problems for years. The travesty of this story is that it has taken this long.
