'BLUEPRINT': Musk, Ramaswamy lay out DOGE's plan to reform government

[@Kristopher-m4s]

There are going to be a lot of ticked off taxpayers when they find out how their money has been thrown away

[@lindacurtis3513]

Really ,Took 4 years for them to consider complaining about current ADM waste of TAXPAYERS money .!!!!

[@RobCoops]

Maybe I think there will also be an equal number of taxpayers that are going to be very happy to see that finally the government is going to accept that there is not an unlimited amount of money to burn as it desires. If they can do what they set out to do and safe 2 trillion dollars that would probably make those same angry people a lot happier. As the heads of Doge are pointing out there is a lot of money to be saved by removing a lot of agencies and cut down on the vast volume of spending that seems to be just there because it was at some point put in place and no one knows why anymore. Having two successful business leaders leading the Doge efforts to find ways to tighten the waist belt and reduce the unsustainable growth of the federal debt is a good thing regardless what the swamp creatures say about it. Even if they fail to meet their goal and only safe the American taxpayer 1 trillion by the summer of 2026, that still would make a huge dent in the overall expenses. If they even manage to only find 1 trillion a year in pointless spending that would already be fantastic for the government that has nearly 7 trillion a year in income. On top of that if they proof that it is possible to reduce your expenses this much as the largest and wealthiest government in the world there is a good chance that the efforts will be continued in the US and other countries will want to copy their solutions which would help many more people than just the American taxpayers.

The most important thing that Musk and Ramaswamy can do is to focus on Federal contracts.

There is so much bloat in the government I hope these 2 can make it a dent. I dont think people realize how massive of an undertaking this is.

[@Shsbsbsjssbz]

They will not be able to cut contracts which is where the real bloat is. Why? Because the politicians get kickbacks for these contracts and will block any attempt to cut the fat ones. What they will do is cut federal jobs which will reduce the budget by .1% and then rehire folks back as contractors where the government will have to spend 3x as much on every position. This satisfies the voters thirst for “cuts” and satisfies funneling more money into the pockets of the rich people who actually are draining all the tax dollars and overcharging the government. They will cut Medicare just to do the same thing with private insurance paid for by those same tax dollars. They will do this while making the trump tax cuts permanent which will offset a 4-10 trillion dollar burden back to taxpayers over 10 years. You really think these rich twats are your heroes? They are not like us. They do not care about us. They do not represent us. They work tirelessly on behalf of their own interest which should only make sense. You are being duped in order to further enrich the rich.

NCTC in Shepherdstown, WV made a Rockwall and Frisee golf for their employees and it cost MILLIONS. They are not placing a product on all their windows so birds dont fly into them as easily. It is SOOOO much waste.

[@Proenglish837]

bringing people into the offices is not going to lower cots at all. There is a lot of bad spending. But how they plan on addressing this... yeah.. good luck. I dont disagree. But this is directly due to politicians and allowing the lobbying

elon musk did NOT start Tesla from scratch. he started out as an investor in a company called Tesla that was started by two other individuals. he spent a lot of time and resources trying to get people to forget about that. looks like it worked. He's also a defense contractor. why does anyone trust this guy? Because he posts funny memes? lame

[@terrylandess6072]

And Biden, a political lackey and paid traitor spent a lot of time getting into the Whitehouse, followed by trying to convince people he wasn't. Welcome to politics.

[@steprockmedia]

You got it wrong at 6:00 my friend. It's not a question of whether government can keep doing what it's doing without those departments. The question is whether A: they should be doing it at all. And B: if that power truly has to be at the Federal level.

Now will this include the massive salaries recieved by every member of the House and Senate. You know the people who only show up for work part-time. America you are paying every Senator and House member $ 174K PER YEAR. Now multiply that by 500.A group of folks who work part-time. Government easte. Dont overlook them Vivek

[@terrylandess6072]

That's why they are salaried. In the real world most salaried persons work beyond 40hrs per week because the corporations can get away with it.

[@rogerp5816]

Someone needs to fact check "Elon Musk started a car company from scratch". Elon Musk actually bought Tesla and made it what it is today.

[@terrylandess6072]

Common knowledge. Elon isn't responsible for media hype. They can't help themselves. If media needed approval on any story run by the people involved, they'd close down.

Returning employees five days a week to the office if they can do the job via teleworking is going to cause a traffic gridlock nightmare. I don’t think this line of action is necessarily needed!

[@MrSardoc1]

Can Europe have a bit of that? We currently have an insanely stupid government in the UK trying to bankrupt farmers and make pensioners freeze.

February 2025 jobs report will be 😔 sad. Unexpected bump in unemployment of federal workers.

[@imahick5723]

And my guess is the most of them will be unemployable.

[@WideAwakeHuman]

That’s not sad…. That’s necessary

[@newyork397]

I don't care. They weren't helping me in anyway. They probably had a cush job doing nothing all day. Time for them to actually benefit society.

[@JohnnyBravo-zu9oe]

Jobs report will be great, "their" jobs not so great!

[@imahick5723]

@newyork397 Musk said something like only 17% of federal employees are actually going into the job. The rest are working from home!! Can you imagine the culture shock when they have to return to the office? Get dressed, commute and interact with colleagues?? It also cost money to go into the office with the many collections and gifts that are expected

[@HenryKlein-xs3td]

No cost plus contracts. No DBE requirements. Require government contracts awarded to American owned businesses and individuals who actually pay taxes.

[@nancyross5257]

Maybe they should look in their own backyard and stop Trump from overcharging the government by millions for his weekly Maralago trips.

What a great idea for these guys! This should've been done years ago!

[@MikeSuperH]

Returning everyone back to 5 days is actually going to cost more than telework. More personnel returning requires office space. This in turn will require more lease space, etc. Trust me it will cost the fed gov more

[@3namechangezalowdevry90day7]

😂Yeah, plus gotta light the place with $500.00 light bulbs that only come in pallets of 1000...

[@jo-annn332]

Uhm... they are paying for space that is not utilized. So get ultilizing it or shut'er down. Pretty simple.

[@MikeSuperH]

@@jo-annn332 A lot of those were given discounted leasing as a result of not being fully utilized. Once you bring everyone back then full lease rates apply. In addition, you had a reduction in utilities etc. being utilized. So no sorry, not so simple as you suggest

Elon didn’t built Tesla from scratch. Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning founded Tesla Motors in July 2003. In 2004 Elon became the largest shareholder of Tesla after he sold PayPal, and bought Tesla shares.

[@yukselkiziltas1122]

been saying for years, Government needs to cut costs and way to do it was to get rid of these useless departments that really bring no value add. Wasteful spending of billions of taxpayer dollars. Glad, someone is finally looking into this. I am TIRED of carrying people on my back. TIRED!

[@terrylandess6072]

While nepotism refers to family most of the time, when people only hire family, friends, or sycophants and expand government spending to include more leeches - years of this has created what we see now.

[@terrywenban6816]

The one issue that business men have is their lack of humanity and compassion. I didn't hear anyone mention dept of health or welfare. There are going to be a long list of unemployed and a growing unemployment number. Now given the lack of workers America currently has this may help.
