I’m with Elon — we must rein in Washington’s crazy spending, toxic rules
Opinion by John Stossel • 3h

The Department of Government Efficiency has started making moves.

The DC media are furious about his attempts to cut government agencies.

But I take Elon Musk’s side.

More efficient government has been promised often. It’s never happened.

Instead, government just grew.

Sen. Rand Paul showcases stupid government “investments” like the $118,000 study of finger snapping, which the National Science Foundation said was “inspired by the infamous finger snap of the (comic book) villain ‘Thanos.'”
 
The government concluded that “varying degrees of friction between the fingers alters . . . performance of a snap.”

Gee, thanks.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
