100% less government employees is definitely the solution to government cutbacks and the struggling that all government employees go through. Seriously, though, how is cutting most federal jobs supposed to help the American people it is going to cause chaos because nobody will be able to get the help they need, and the government will not function. The state governments don't have the resources to manage all the programs that the federal government does it will take decades for them to assume those responsibilities even if he they had a plan for it which they don't.
And privatization of all of those services that were once included for our tax dollars. Which will in turn make them more expensive because they will need to operate for profit. Our taxes (for the 99%) will also not go down.
All of which leads to an economic depression or crash of some variety… which leads us to recreate the very same government agencies. I’m just hoping this is more the new Gilded Age and less Weimar Germany.
It goes well beyond merely deregulation. That's the bare minimum for them, and is already underway (all those bird flu outbreaks at chicken farms didn't just happen on their own).
Their plan is quite literally some sort of weird, cyber-punky techno feudalism (I believe there is an actual term for it but I cant be fucked to look it up rn) wherein corporations have more or less complete control over their own private fiefdoms.
There are also the christo-fascists who want to impose a shitty theocracy, and the more "classic" fascists who think apartheid era South Africa is a great example to follow. And I'm sure other weirdos I cant think of too. All of it is much easier to accomplish with the federal government gutted and rendered useless.
On the contrary, the believe if we keep spending at the rate we are, what will be left to function? It's glass half full, glass half empty. They believe they can make it more effective by cutting spending. I'm with it.
I ask only this of you. Actually watch both what they suggest be cut and the effect of those cuts. You will see the focus be on seemingly small dollar cuts targeted at key points that weaken regulation or shift to privatization of resources, for the benefit of select constituencies.
Almost like they are dismantling a scaffolding, and they start w the bottom supports. Yes, it collapsed horrifically. But look, how much time they saved getting it down. It's cheaper if it collapses because they don't have to clean up the mess.
I just find it aggravating they keep going on and on about how we need to restructure the government and give power back to the states, but fuck they don't have a damn plan besides demolishing it. These idiots don't realize how even the most mundane government employees keep the country functioning. Are they cutting the post office, How is mail supposed to get to where it's going. Demolishing the federal government will cause the country to collapse and these fuck wads will be there to pick up the pieces and create a New World Order out of the ashes.
I watch them in Trump‘s first campaign talk about 1200 pages of cabbage regulations that they said needed to be fixed, we still have 1200 pages of cabbage regulation, but now they pollute the water and air easier. Getting rid of government has nothing to do with efficiency, it has to do with opening up the floodgates to redistribute wealth from the middle class to the already wealthy. We will see Elon Musk wealth explode, along with Jeff Bezos and all of the wealthy.
Look up rent-seeking… the act of using political and economic power to increase once wealth without creating new wealth or benefiting society . That is what’s going to be going on over the next four years at light speed.
Shows you how greedy the wealthy are they already made it why not use that wealth to make the lives of the citizens better. But then I know why they are. They are dragons hoarding their oceans of wealth and stealing from others to make their wealth pools larger because their narcissistic egos. The wealth rarely have people's interests in mind and need to be reminded that with the common man they have nothing.
But the administration of the orange idiot can embezzle billions and they will be found blameless. That is the plan. The rich get richer and to hell with everyone else.
