I have two Thomas Sowell quotes I could add.

"It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong."

"You will never understand bureaucracies until you understand that for bureaucrats procedure is everything and outcomes are nothing."

So I guess Vivek and Musk can just...do all this stuff? And Congress and the courts will let them? Cool.

” And Congress and the courts will let them? Cool.”

The state block grants would total about a trillion dollars.

That sort of money will attract support at the state level.

Okay, we’ll see how it works out.

Nice fantasy, but there are all kinds of legal protections in place to prevent what you say to occur.
