Elon Musk's Critique of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency plans to dismantle the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), which he considers an unaccountable entity that raises costs for consumers. Advocates for the agency argue it protects individuals from financial exploitation. Musk and supporters claim the CFPB's regulations create a burden for financial institutions, ultimately leading to increased costs passed on to consumers. Critics of the CFPB suggest that without proper legislative oversight, its rules can impede financial accessibility for lower-income individuals.
