So is Musk’s plan to fire US government workers and replace them with cheaper H1-Bs to save money?

Make the 2025-2026 budget exactly the same as the 2019 budget.

Freeze it in place for 4 years barring a 2/3rds vote of the Congress to repeal.

NONE of the so called mandatory spending is authorized under the Constitution. That’s the issue.

Just use those 87,000 IRS agents Biden hired to audit our government. I’ll bet we could cut a third of the budget just from the fraud and money laundering done by our politicians and their lobbyists.

I believe the president of Hungary is saying 50% of the money sent to Ukraine ended up in the pockets of US politicians.

This globe trotting, smug academic a-hole is awfully cavalier about whacking off benefits some of us have spent a lifetime paying for.

I’m not for DOGE. I don’t want the government more efficiently arresting abortion clinic protesters. Or mams and dads going to school board meetings. I want a Department of Constitutional Alignment. If it ain’t one of the enumerated powers it gets deleted. That will take care of about 99% of the federal government.

SS, Medicare, Medicaid and all welfare programs need to be phased out.

They’re nothing but social programs that can never be fully funded because it’s a ponzi type scheme the government is incapable of handling.

I could have done much better investing my SS tax then the government did... Keep the company match but only if you invest. You don’t invest you pay the price and are not my problem.

Medical care is not a right. You want it pay for it or get insurance although insurance is a major problem for the high cost. Drs charge insurance $1000.00 for a procedure but accept the $150 insurance pays out. Think about that.

And I said PHASED OUT not stopped immediately for those who want to argue otherwise.

Like switching to Geico, the government can save 15% by switching to H1B workers.

Where is the 100 billion categorized that we sent to Ukraine, and the millions to forgive college loans, and the trillion to pay people not to work during covid?
