Who said anything about a hidden agenda? Can you consider that the current efforts are outright foolish?
- dcow 2y agoI disagree that trying to curb “fraud waste and abuse” is an outfight foolish endeavor, no.
- davepeck 2y agoThere are effective approaches to curbing fraud waste and abuse and ineffective or even damaging approaches. Which do you believe the current administration is engaged in?
- dcow 2y agoI believe they will prove effective. I believe the government is in need of disruptive change. I welcome the effort.
- davepeck 2y agoFor what it’s worth: I believe they will prove ineffective at best, damaging at worst. I believe disruptive change should be undertaken with a deep understanding of the history of an organization and a clear-eyed accounting of its successes and failures. I see no evidence of this. I believe the current effort is, well, a bit more like a recklessly wielded chainsaw.
- dcow 2y agoIf Twitter was a failing business and Musk didn't have a proven track record, I’d be a lot more skeptical in general. If the nuclear staffing cuts weren’t immediately rolled back, I’d feel more concerned about the ability of the wielders.
