Vivek and Musk to Layoff 25% of Gov. Employees?

[Lartinos]

“DOGE: What Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon plan to cut 25% of the Federal Gov't workforce

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy aim to cut $2 trillion or 25% of the federal workforce from the federal budget by July 4, 2026.  They've said they'll fire federal employees, "delete" entire agencies, or at least vastly change them. A 2023 report from the **Government Accountability Office** found that 17 of the agencies reviewed used about 25% or less of their buildings' space. The federal government spends about $2 billion each year to maintain federal office buildings and $5 billion to lease space to agencies, the report found.

Agency Targets on the Hit List:

* Department of Education
* Department of Defense
* Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
* Internal Revenue Service”

getting rid of DEI managers and policies will greatly reduce the budgets

I’ve remember about 10 -12 years ago  working in NYC as an construction  project manager and our company used to have lots of government contracts .We’ve walked into  the government and federal offices and literally no one was doing anything besides surfing the net . 9-5 nothing and getting paid  with great benefit package on taxpayer’s  dime
For them it perfectly fits the question “how people had lived before the internet?”.They would have died bored if someone had unplugged the router .
 Mexicans are screwed ,these hardworking office people will be stealing their jobs .

[FitnessFrenzy]

I hope they will clean up Getbig next.

Yeah, start off with cops, teachers, nurses,....

As tough as it will be, it has to be done. There will be collateral damage. As long as they're transparent and it makes sense, cuts must be made.  We're passed unsustainable and are on the path of YOLO/fuck it, max this bitch out.

Americans better tap nto their grandparents' ingenuity genes and learn how to budget and be content with a much different level of lifestyle compared to what they've been accustomed.  In the meantime, save your sheckles and invest in this new quantum financial system, be patient and your children and grandchildren can live a better life from your investments.

While they are for the most part trifling and lazy, most don’t really make any money. It’s almost as if they just get paid to show up, almost like some sort of welfare.

I agree .I do not blame them .Getting great health insurance for entire family is must ,so even if pay sucks benefits will do the trick .Plus if spouse has good paid job that evens out.

Most people will never do this. They'd rather go into debt trying to match their neighbors' cars instead of investing that money.

Might even be the same guy.

[honest]

If there was ever an industry that could be run by AI its the administrative duties of the public service or government, with government global debt crippling the western world this is the smartest thing done by anyone in decades if they can pull it off and redirect capital to paying off national debt, administrative government workers are the least productive workers in society, overpaid and lazy, heavily unionised making it impossible to performance manage them, wipe it out.

Similar story, here. We were getting over £300 per metre all in on government contracts. The direct labour we came across were utterly useless. All the money went to the contractors and the direct labour for NationalGrid were left with the D4s or whatever the BS, "let's find where this leak is coming from" BS. They knew that a 35 year contract couldn't be done using their own guys. Excellent nest vans with the latest tech. But it took shelfless vans full of shovel monkeys to make them claim to the Energy Minister that they were on schedule. To me, a public sector job is for women that have other commitments and blokes that want the easy street.

I don’t know why but reading your replay I automatically thought about that construction/ concrete UK movie with Tom Hardy LOCKE.

Wow. I randomly watched that film not realising its basically a bloke going through a breakdown in a car.... I was shocked how good a film it was. Same as Boiling Point with... what's his face? Anyway..
 GRAHAM SYEVEN GRAHAM... sometimes you flick something on and it really bites into you. Thanks for the flashback hope you enjoyed it too

Thanks for the tip brother .I’ll check it out that Boiling Point has  99% approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes .
Speaking of UK movies hopefully Guy Ritchie’s  In The Gray movie will be good.

They say they want to cut government budget but they also want government workers to return to the empty offices that's not efficient. Get rid of the empty government office buildings we don't need them that will save money right now they have like a 20% occupancy rate DC is empty

[Humble Narcissist]

Excellent start.

Yes, but democrats will just restaff those positions as soon as they get back in power.

[bhank]

Defense spending never gets cut by anyone don't believe it for a second

Maybe. People, especially government workers, won’t work as hard from home without accountability. To ensure efficiency, government workers would have to be paid based on results, not just salary or hourly rates. That could be difficult to measure for some government jobs.

They also do nothing in the office that is a separate issue. But making people come to the office  just to justify the office space doesn't make sense. If they can do the work remotely get rid of the expensive office buildings
