Consequently, the South African billionaire has been put in charge of a so-called "Department of Government Efficiency" to excise $2 trillion from the national budget. Whether this advisory group will be able to take aim at the Artemis program remains to be seen.

"Government efficiency" is code for tax cuts for the rich.

It means that any social programs that we benefit from will suffer or disappear altogether.

What a world we live in. Stop having faith in government and start taking matters into our own hands.

Anyone who talks about government inefficiency while ignoring Department of Defence spending is not serious.
