That’s what you do if your goal is trying to cut costs at your top 20 social media network after accepting it’ll never be in the top 10, not when things actually matter. People depend on government services and you can’t easily undo things like impacts on livelihoods, the environment, the economy, etc.
- sumedh 2y agoIf it actually matters then they should make take the auditing seriously and report where the money is going. They don't want the transparency.
- acdha 2y agoThey are taking auditing seriously by all accounts since the Obama era but it takes time to dig through an organization that large with such a variety of complex tasks. Not to rehash Chesterton's fence but when lives are on the line you really do want to make sure that you understand how the status quo happened before making changes. This is especially true of an organization designed for unusual events where you don’t have the luxury of rebuilding capacity in the middle of a crisis. I’m sure there is plenty of waste to be found but also that only a tiny amount of that won’t involve significant political wrangling.
