I thoroughyl expect the Deparment of Government Efficiency to recommend U.S. Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) be shut down to save previous taxpayer dollars.

Am I the only one that is not excited about the next four years being constant banter of this nature? I loathe it. Nothing personal against your comment but the new administration hasn't even gone into office and I cannot get away from this.

Um, the DOGE is rather a necessity about now.

The USA is ~$36 TRILLION in debt. Interest payments are now consuming ~20% of tax revenue...more than the defense budget. That's insane!

Musk is also absolutely correct about over-regulation and government bureaucracy stifling innovation and economic growth.

Then there's the amazing incompetence often displayed by the current admin... Witness Afghanistan, among many other examples.

Given a two party system, I can only think this election outcome was better than the alternative!

Ever heard of Chestertons fence? Coming into a government for over 300 million people without the faintest clue how it works, removing stuff that doesn’t look too useful is the worst possible strategy to improve efficiency. You don’t renovate with a wrecking ball.
