Thread: DOGE Spending Cuts

    There's no way DOGE has enough employees to review the emailed homework assignments they will receive from federal employees. I think Musk plans to use the emails from federal employees to train his AI. He should not be allowed to harness the efforts of the federal workforce to enrich himself.

    More grift..

    CNN — The Federal Aviation Administration has agreed to use SpaceX’s Starlink internet system to upgrade the information technology networks it uses to manage US airspace, raising new concerns about conflicts of interest for CEO Elon Musk in one of his other roles, that of recommending funding cuts at federal agencies, including the FAA.

    More...
    The FAA already has a contract with Verizon to upgrade its information technology networks. In a post on X Monday, Musk said “The Verizon system is not working and so is putting air travelers at serious risk.”

    Musk has numerous business interests that are overseen by federal agencies. Beyond the FAA and NASA, he is also regulated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the National Labor Relations Board and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. He has often clashed with several of those agencies over the years.

    He has already publicly stated on X, though your "news" sources obviously didn't tell you, that the content of any email response is irrelevant. It is a test to see who responds and who doesn't.

    I'm trying to get you to admit there is a point where someone should lose their job, regardless of the fact they might have a family they need to support. But you won't do that because you would lose your "good guy" points by admitting that at some point we have to fire people from their jobs, and we would then need to have a discussion that isn't based on feelings or trying to make the other person feel bad, but rather a discussion about where the line is for when a person needs to be fired, and maybe Elon Musk or Donald Trump have found that line.
    The problem with people like takesintheBACKdoor don't understand that the government is a business and needs to be ran like one. It can't be left to run unchecked like it has been otherwise it will fail.

    When a company hits hard times and they're trying to stay in the black they start doing things to reduce overhead costs, such as:
    1) Eliminating overtime
    2) Reducing hours
    3) Dropping temp/part time workers
    4) Letting full time employees go
    ....and the list goes on.

    What rarely happens with the government is this, getting rid of the excess waste to help keep things within budget. Does it suck that people lose their jobs? Sure, it's happened to almost everyone at some point so many of us know what it's like and it sucks.

    I know waste happens in the government:

    I have friends from across all military branches and they all have the same story about how the end of year review for budget is coming up so they're instructed by their COs to use/waste supplies so they can put it in the books that they used up their budget. Upon doing this they get to keep the same budget they had the year before or get it increased (it's usually the latter) so they can get all new supplies. When the next yearly budget review is coming up it's the same thing; use/waste supplies so they get their budget renewed or expanded. Rinse and repeat over and over again. They tell me they'd spend days doing "target practice" to go through all the ammo, firing off thousands and thousands of rounds....

    If this is just one small section of the government that's just going on about wasting stuff to keep or increase their budgets, this mentality is clearly running rampant through other (if not all) bodies of the government. There needs to be a culling and no one here gives a shit about BACKdooringmen and how he fells about it. If he's too fucking dumb to understand it all you can do is point and laugh at the retard, then after a good laugh you just ignore the fucking idiot and watch him meltdown.

    The "good enough for Government work!" mentality is coming back to bite them in the ass.

    He will definitely use it to train his AI.

    Correct. Train it to tell the difference between a productive, useful employee and dead weight.
