      Yes, Elon said they'll give the people time to look for a new job, and a good severence pay, to tide them over with mortgage payments etc. Vivek said they'll assess each dept, look for the top 20% in each dept, fire the rest...on Elon's plan and then work out how many people working at 100% it takes to do the jobs, and select the best of the best from the 20% and remove the rest. They are going to put up a website with the tasks at hand and ask the country which programs should they keep, cut or dump all together.
      One great way to teach the country about Civics, Accounting, what things govt should be interested in and so on.

    I have worked for the federal government as a civilian and a contractor. There are plenty of useless unqualified people working for the federal government.

  • @ItsEricAZ
    @ItsEricAZ 3 дня назад +4

    The question is: What is a proper government function vs excessive overhead? Every gov agency has bloated over the last several decades and there are many ways to streamline things. One example is we have almost 80 programs to help the poor spread over several agencies. How about we make it one program run by one agency? That makes it much easier for the folks getting assistance while reducing a lot of duplicated overhead. We have the EPA going after farmers over how they handle drainage and mud puddles calling them "Navigatable Waters of the US." Some bored bureaucrat came up with that BS and needs to be fired along with a bunch of others in that office. Plenty of other examples out there.

      @johnwoodrow8769 3 дня назад

      Let me explain to you how government reduces employee numbers. They call for people willing to take a voluntary redundancy. Who puts their hand up for this? People who are about to retire anyhow, so the redundancy payment is just an expensive 'golden handshake'. OR, good people who want to get out of the government confident of finding a much higher paying and satisfying job in the private sector.
      The people who stay are the unproductive deadwood, who know no one in the private sector will employee them.

    Musk and Vivek are business people and understand how to tackle this issue. No - they are not looking for "money paid for projects" but look at the government apparatus like a factory.
    I starts with identifying what each department is doing. Identifying whether we need an FBI and a Homeland Security. Their function is "SAFTY WITHING THE UNITED STATES" .Merge them into one. and cutt out all overlapping processes. By streamlining the operations, matching the responsibilities with the corresponding authority - break these actions down into "processes" (known as SOX) and have them reconciled and audited.
    Such a system automatically flushes projects that are not part of the authorized activities out.
    Present governmenet spending is $ 8 Billion. With these two workng together, such a re-organization projet should yield at least 30% savings. Musk is pretty close with his prediction of $ 2 Billion.
