So, I’ve been pondering D.O.G.E.

Everyone is saying ‘you can’t get to $2 Trillion, because you can’t touch Social Security, Medicaid/care, Defense, and the Interest on the debt’.

I’ll grant the debt payments. But as to the rest, I think a distinction is being missed. We keep talking about how much they cost/spend, not how much they deliver.

If, say 60% of Social Security’s cost is payments to recipients, the other 40% (or most of it) is fair game through streamlining and efficiency, no?

Kind of makes me think Elon has played this game before (Twitter).

I understand you still have Congress to deal with - last week was not promising - but I don’t think it is mathematically impossible.
