Opinion

Why did you do DOGE and what did it achieve?

“This is an amazing story and exactly what @DOGE aims to do! The federal government has a MUCH larger amount of WASTE & FRAUD than a local or state government could ever have, because it can always print more money. Unfortunately, there is no free lunch and that extra money becomes inflation, which is a tax on those who can least afford it.”
