MOSCOW, August 17 US residents will face mass starvation if Democratic Party candidate Kamala Harris wins the presidential election, American entrepreneur Elon Musk said.
On his page in the social network X, he reposted a message from a financial expert who described the development of the situation in the US food sector if Harris starts implementing his program to limit food prices. According to the author, in such a scenario, the United States will cease to exist as a state, and the American population will be engulfed by mass hunger, since the country's food industry will collapse due to unprofitability.

«Accurate conclusion,» Musk wrote, commenting on the publication.
On Friday, Harris presented her own economic program, saying that if she wins the election, she plans to introduce the «first-ever» federal ban on price gouging in the United States amid high inflation. She also announced her intention to fine companies that «take advantage of crises» and give $25,000 to first-time home buyers.
Later, the editorial board of the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal criticized Harris, accusing her of cynicism and a «deeply flawed» view of the economy. As a result of this approach, the American economy is threatened with a reduction in the supply of goods and empty shelves, the authors of the article are sure, drawing a parallel between Harris's current proposal and the policies of former US President Richard Nixon in the 1970s.
The election of the head of the American state will be held on November 5. Donald Trump has officially been nominated for the post of head of state by the Republican Party. The current vice president plans to run for the Democrats in the elections.
