And who is responsible for making sure federal contracts don't go to wasteful contractors?
- sarchertech 3mo agoYeah but that’s a process issue that would require deep familiarity and probably acts of Congress to fix. That’s not something a few 25 year olds with no relevant experience can come in and fix in 100 days.
- parineum 3mo agoSure but this whole thread reads like it's absolving the government giving these contracts and blaming private companies. It's the frog and the scorpion fable.
- Sabinus 3mo agoTo me this whole thread reads people trying to apologise for DOGE, especially by making appeals like 'government has corruption and waste and that is bad so DOGE was good'.
- lern_too_spel 3mo agoIt's why smart government created USDS, to clean up the mess left by contractors who set up the original healthcare.gov by having competent people work directly for the federal government. USDS was replaced with the incompetent DOGE (now US DOGE Service) and then completely shut down due to the new organization's incompetence.
