- wonderwonder 2y agoWhether you support it or not, for government, that's really some incredible efficiency. almost 1/3 complete in 100 days
- michaelbuckbee 2y agoEasier to destroy than create.
- eru 1y agoNot usually for government departments.
- starkparker 2y agoI mean, let's not act like firing people and cancelling contracts without caring if you get sued or break things is substantially more difficult than, say, closing browser tabs
- dleeftink 2y agoThe most efficient system is the one that is none. But it also ceases to be a system.

- Spooky23 2y agoIt’s amazing that people so committed to constitutional principles were able to enact the largest tax increase in history without the advice and consent of congress. Impressive even for tax and spend republicans. In democracy loving areas of the British Empire, that type of arbitrary action led to revolutions.
- monero-xmr 2y agoHuh? Trump won the popular vote. Maybe make better arguments in the next election if you don't like the current leader, rather than a violent revolution to overturn a democratically elected leader
- immibis 2y agoAdolf Hitler was also democratically elected.

- Spooky23 2y agoTrump is President, not king or Caesar.
- wonderwonder 2y agoThey absolutely have the consent of Congress. Congress can stop this at any time. They elect not to. Their silence is consent in this case. You can attribute that silence to active support or cowardice but either way they can stop it and don't so they approve of it. "In democracy loving areas of the British Empire, that type of arbitrary action led to revolutions." Not sure if you have taken a look at Britain lately but they absolutely don't care about what the citizens want.
- karaterobot 2y agoI'll join you in getting downvoted for absolutely no reason. It's a shitty thing they're doing, but your observation is correct. My job working on NIH-funded research projects is directly in their path, so I wish they weren't stomping a mudhole across science and technology. But they are, and, as you note, they're doing it very effectively and with incredible speed. If it's outside our capability as a community to even acknowledge that they're moving fast, how can we note that they're moving way too fast to be doing it right?
- lazide 2y agoBut they are doing it right - by their metric. Which is not the one others want them to be using.
- karaterobot 1y agoBy their own metrics, sure, maybe. I don't actually know what the real measurement of success is for them. But, to clarify, I didn't mean doing it right by their metric, I meant in my estimation, or [gestures broadly] our estimation.
- lazide 1y agoThe crux of the issue IMO, is to quote, ‘what do you mean “we” kemo sabe?’ I bet on any particular issue you can find 3-4 major groups with conflicting opinions.
- mywittyname 1y agoIt's easy to destroy things - especially when no heed is paid to laws or down stream effects. I mean, carpet bombing New York City would demonstrate "incredible efficiency" - as it would probably take much less time than demolishing a single building in the city following the laws.
- rayiner 1y agoPromises made, promises kept.
