Here's an idea for Elon from US Digital Service cofounder @pahlkadot.bsky.social, who seems to genuinely be rooting for DOGE to succeed in modernizing the government and slashing red tape: Let someone else run it.
jfc. The sole reason for Musk's enthusiasm to gut government is to make more money, with less oversight and regulation, for himself and his fellow tech bros.
Any ancillary outcomes are not an argument or justification for his greed, propensity towards authoritarianism, and childishness.
The fundamental flaw here is that that people are assuming the stated mission to make Government more "efficient" is anything other than a barely disguised euphemism for "make govt as small & useless as possible, so as to cut taxes & regulations so the billionaires can make more money."
