It's nice and all that Trump and Elon want to make the government more efficient using the Doge. It's a great idea.

But how are you going to affect the necessary change when you won't even talk about reform for the big 3 line items. Welfare entitlements, military spending and interest on the debt...and action to reform government is just a larp unless you address one or all three of those things.

Who thinks they got the balls to take away the welfare benefits?

Definitely a larp, just for show. You need a leader like Milei if you want far reaching reform.

I don't think the American people have the stomach to weather any storm with a serious cutback in welfare or military spending. A lot of us do, but not the entire place.

I think that social security taxes should be eliminated entirely. Anyone retired should be paid out a lump sum. Anyone between 45-65 should be compensated based on age and contributions with those closest to retirement given the largest portion.
