Well, let’s find that with DOGE. DOGE had already revealed things that are so unnecessary for a government to do. Humans can do much better governance than what we do now.


> let’s find that with DOGE.

I think this whole logic of letting an unproven entity come in and destroy a working system to just “find out” if it works is negligent and malicious.


DOGE is working like a governing board which landed on top of a big corporation, and started reaping things down without understanding "why" part of the equation.

Ignoring Chesterton's Fences in the short term might look good on paper, but we have seen how companies enshittified themselves for profits (let's reduce the OPEX part).

Doing this to a government will have catastrophic results, and we will watch the slow downfall. It'll be dramatic and painful.
