Wanna bet Trumps US Space Force, all 10,000 of them, never fall under the DOGE microscope? Wanna bet SpaceX is their first private contractor?

The results are clear in a statistical analysis of NASA and SpaceX projects. In 118 space missions, NASA saw an average cost overrun of 90%. Over 16 missions, SpaceX saw an average cost overrun of 1.1%.  SpaceX projects tended to take an average of about four years, while NASA projects averaged about seven years. Interestingly, both NASA and SpaceX tend to promise faster delivery than actually occurs—SpaceX does in four years what it says it would do in three, while NASA does in six or seven years what it said it would do in four.

Its costs Space-X about $80 million to launch a payload.  It cost NASA $2 billion per payload launch.

I think Elon has earned that right to not be subject to DOGE cuts.

Right, but since he has no official power, since he's just supposed to be compiling reports on how to implement cost reductions at the administrative level, let's sit back and let him cook.

If he doesn't want us to sit back while he quietly works, if he seems to want us constantly engaged in his X posts and those posts are about items that require Congress to act, and therefore beyond his scope, we should start to doubt his dedication, or his sincerity, or both.

That says it's a parody account.

Do you even look at your source before you post?

It appears to be about as serious as the one in the OP. Not suprised.

Figured this would be a good place to post findings. Once this department gets fully up and running, there's going to be some really crazy findings and where a lot of our taxpayer money is going..

Wouldn't imitating a US government department go against the rules on X?

DOGE will be able to find billions on savings but wont get anywhere near $2 trillion unless it defaults on debt. 

I just hope cutting means bringing in vulture consultants like McKinsey and BCG or just replacing full time employee with contractors who cost more in the long term.

There are no DOGE findings because the DOGE doesn't exist.

They don't have to balance the budget.  They have to shrink the annual borrowings to the point where the interest payments are sustainable.  The debt can continue to grow as the economy grows.  But it can't grow too fast, like it is now.

- Pentagon can’t fully account for $824 Billion - $236 Billion in improper payments in federal programs in 2023 - $200 Billion in pandemic relief went to fraud/abuse - The U.S. failed to track $1 Billion in Ukraine Aid How much do we not yet know about?

Hundreds of billions of dollars of PPP payments were fraudulently stolen during the Trump administration.  The people administering the program were told to rush the payments out, and that left them with no time to check out the recipients.  As a result, thousands of fake companies were created which received hundreds of billions of dollars from the government.

It was global. Covid launched a multi trillion dollar wave of money around the world. It will be years before we know, if ever, how much of that money was spent/gained illicitly through myriad fraudulent schemes and deceitful practices. Who knows how long it will take the world economy to level out from such a huge and sudden expenditure.

Marty, I have a confession to make..

You've become one of my favorite posters to read lately.. Keep it up.

While I am sure there will be the need for congress to act, my impression is they will focus on those that were enacted without congress through past executive actions. This article should help.  I am in a wait and see mode to see how all this shakes out. Forecasting the future whether positive or negative is a slippery slope.

It's disingenuous to put political operatives in charge of assessing government efficiency. Obviously they will go after programs they don't like.

The absurdity of the idea is breathtaking.

A successful America is "brazen corruption" to the intellectually deficient and America-hating left (BIRM).
