I feel like I disagree with this approach to government efficiency: https://x.com/DOGE/status/1860739165144367441 The examples listed are a tiny fraction of all spending. If a government _optimizes_ for "don't make oopses that look bad on twitter", then it will end up missing a lot of valuable opportunities, and at the same time lots of actually-wasteful large-scale things will remain just because they look respectable. You _want_ a VC-like approach on small-scale public funding, that is okay with large quantities of oopses, because its goal is to make sure it captures the 1000x opportunities. Concentrate prudence energy on the large-scale stuff.

Isn’t this part just a campaign to get people primed for larger cuts?

Exactly, herding followers [they’d be targeting more than >65% approval rating of US people] — they’re simply just hooking peoples attention with posts like that, to then have it shared and meme’d throughout social networks. Manipulative, but hey, that’s advertising. Emotional manipulation is the only thing that is proven to work on a commercial scale.
