DOGE is the attempted gutting of the US administrative state to maximise corporate profits.
I could write an essay on this but it's not complicated.

We were talking about this at work today, the only saving grace is that they are moving so fast to flood the zone people might actually start to feel the consequences while he’s still in office.
It could still go the wrong way long term but it might also be them shooting themselves in the foot

@PalteseMalconFunch It's the story of the death-spiral within neoliberalism and the far right. Sigh.

This is the collapse of the Soviet Union: western edition.
It isn't a move to strengthen the private sector or maximize profits (when they're literally sanctioning themselves with tariffs lol), the final purpose is to collapse the system as a whole so that the oligarchy may reign with unlimited power on the ashes, exactly like Putin and his henchmen did.

@DavidT8899 On paper it sounds nice, but are you really willing to trust a politician at face value?
When you start digging into the things this administration is labeling fraud and waste, very little of it actually turns out to be anything close to corruption. I mean, how can one say that they are properly auditing the government when none of the people on DOGE's staff have any known auditing or accounting experience?

@DavidT8899 That would be nice if they hadn't already started firing government inspectors and laying off employees of these agencies

Gee whiz Burnsie. You know that reduced the over bloated socialist enablers only hurts the feelings of commies like you when in reality in a federal republic the job of the government is to protect the homeland, keep the streets clean and prevent and punish crime. This doesn’t include sending out money to pay for YOUR socialist programs.
@Burnley123 Awesome! No one should depend on the government for insurance.

You think they let him drive? @Musicman
