For every bureaucrat that makes a difference, there are thousands who are parasites.

Everyone knows who the people who make a difference are. They still have their jobs.

The tangible benefit to the public of less people working is a reduced budget. That's it. That's the only tangible benefit to the public.
No. The main tangible benefit is crippling the suffocating bureacracy and police state. That's the main benefit: to bury the bloated corpse that is the federal government.

If spending continues to increase at alarming rates while we're in debt spiral territory then a smaller work force doesn't mean anything at all.
The federal government cannot and will not be a jobs program to hire a work force. The Civilian Conservation Corps was an economic and ecological disaster. The government - any government, by the laws of economics - cannot create jobs nor a product. They only enslave. Kill the bureacracy, kill the police state, kill the spending, kill the tax burden.

Yes, stop the spending, but that will require the boomers who offer the $5,000 election checks and who created their social security safety nets 70 years ago to get out of public office. It requires the abolition of the bureacracy to stop the spending.

This must be why the irs keeps hanging up on me when I call about my refund because I overpaid estimated taxes. They owe me 30k, 60 days past the deadline I was supposed to receive it per their letter

How so?
Need to shut down the Dept of Ed. We can get rid of another 4K or so right there. That's about $600 million.

all of this is actual small government conservatism, but this forum will downvote you because you're not blindly blowing Trump.


The downvotes are because some people can't be happy about anything. Yes, more work needs to be done. That's not a reason to continually complain about good news.

Trump has done more to reduce the government than any president, but all you can see is spending. It's a fair complaint, but learn to take the wins.

We really don't have to complain about improvements just because they aren't the ultimate solution.

A judge ruled that one fed gov agency cant share information with another. How asinine is that.

Its akin to you running a company and a judge saying your finance department cannot check the money your salesmen are bringing in.

I wish we would just ignore these judgements and tell them to take it to the supreme court we are going to proceed. It would never get there because it would have no standing.

You can bet your arse America.Gov has a dual purpose, not just convenience for citizens but to do exactly the information. Elon said all along purposeful silos were put in place so stolen ss# could be used to access various programs.

Our spending is driven by democratic policies.

You knew that though.

Most were Biden DEI hires with made up useless positions.

Unemployment rate is currently at 4.1%, BFD.
Hell, 10% minimum of people aren't worth employing. Cry me a river. If you aren't working it's because you don't want to be working.

You're so damn pathetic. You're just one more little TDS-obsessed bitch, like sfplc and boosie, who would rather eat an elephant poop sandwich than give President Trump credit for anything. That why almost nobody pays attention to any of you. You have ZERO CREDIBILITY.

So Trump has become more efficient at redistributing my wealth. Sounds great.
