I think very few people appreciate the incredible timing of DOGE, and how needed it is to ensure the US doesn't collapse unto itself. The US is about to undergo one of the most radical & disruptive changes it has experienced in its history, and DOGE is the most important step to ensure we can navigate it successfully. The advent of AI and automation is going to radically change everything - especially labor markets. We are going to move from humans doing most of today's work to AI and robots. And this change won't happen slowly - it will happen extremely quickly. AI systems can scale at the speed of a software update. AI powered robotic systems will scale at the speed of smartphone manufacturing. This means that labor markets will be completely different in 5-10 years' time. We need a responsive government - one that is extremely lean and extremely responsive to the will of the people - to navigate this profound change. Without DOGE, we would be stuck with a government that is slow, old, and too corrupt to properly navigate its citizenry to a good outcome. With DOGE, we maximize the changes of a responsive government that's aligned with the will of the people by removing all the barnacles that have latched onto it, sucking away taxpayer $, grinding everything to a halt, and distracting government from what it should be focusing on. This might be difficult to appreciate today, but it will become blindingly obvious by the end of the decade.
