As we speak, Elon Musk and his team of legendary 20-something math nerds are going over the government’s books with a fine-toothed comb, looking for waste, fraud, and unneeded government employees to cut.
Trying to explain to progressives why we can't use the government to take one person's money to give it to another is almost impossible because they can't or won't understand basic math. They love to bump the answer to some "prize winning" economics expert who will come up with some convoluted theory where 1 + 1 = 3, somehow, and then they'll trumpet the workability of their latest proposal. But what madman would turn over the economy to Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren? With the state of education so bad in our country, esp. in math and reading, it's hard to make people understand that choices have to be made, that we can't say yes to every expenditure. I wish Musk and DOGE the best, but Sisyphus got assigned an easier task...

Free for the likes of Bernie and pocahontas to extort money to enrich themselves.
