DOGE is necessary because in order to have sensible reg, you first need to take a wrecking ball to the existing bloat / tech debt

That said, I fear that the baby is going to be thrown out with the bath water (mixed metaphors, I know). I worry specifically about environmental toxins and accelerating further away from nature

I see your point, but wouldn't a radical overhaul also create an opportunity to integrate eco-friendly solutions from the get-go? A chance to learn from DOGE's mistakes and build a more sustainable future.
