I would tend to agree with him. Either waste or the wrong people handling it. I’m not opposed to all welfare programs but we have 50+ programs all done by different parts of the government. It should be one department that determines what you need and one check should be issued. So much waste in inefficiency.

I feel the same way. What astounds me, is even liberals talk about how much waste the government is full of. But suddenly when a Republican says it, they are all out of sorts. Everyone knows how much the government wastes and how most of fed employees suck because they've always had job security and good benefits.

I'm glad to see them having to finally prove what they are doing, and answer for money. It's been a long time coming, and administrations from both sides should have been doing this decades ago.

I'm loving what Trump and Musk are doing. It's our fucking money, and people need to answer for it.

I wish it was more organized but all in all it’s a good thing. We have about 2.4 million federal employees.

Most of that is a waste of tax payer money. We can’t tax our way out of this mess. We have to cut spending.

Even if we took all the money from the billionaires. Every last penny. It pays for maybe 1 year of expenses. That’s it.
