It's a real shame but at least there other nations still doing this work like China and various Euro countries. Sad to see the USA transition to a banana republic. This belief that MAGA party has that the US can't do big things any longer and only corporations and broligarchs know how to lead us forward is just sad.

Especially given the Musk/DOGE recent experience.

Musk takes over Twitter, fires 40% of the workforce, and nothing much happens.

Musk takes over the US Govt, fires <10% of the workforce, and things stop working.

From this we should conclude, obviously, that the government is run much, much more efficiently and with less slack than any of the Big Tech organisations (who are also all busy laying off 10s of % of their workforces, apparently with no ill effect).

I know of a software billionaire[0] who opened a pizzeria and failed. He said so himself.

Should we conclude, obviously, that any break even pizzeria owner is a better businessman than tech billionaires?
