Fixing the federal bureaucracy is critical to the future health of our government and of our nation, so I hope DOGE succeeds. But Musk might discover that it’s easier to start a colony on Mar…
Today, just 2 percent of our population is in the industry, and it makes up about 5 percent of our gross domestic product. Even with that change, however, we still have a Department of Agriculture with 29 departments and over 100,000 employees.
That might be because the size of the agency has to do with the number and difficulty of the tasks that need to be done rather than the size of the private sector involved.
Back in 2018, then-President Trump tasked me, and the Office of Management and Budget that I led, with restructuring the federal bureaucracy.
And, of course, DOGE will have Musk, who is obviously a lot smarter than the guy leading the effort last time.

Also because agriculture is a fucking strategic industry. People can't eat shitty electric cars or reusable rockets. If the US "efficiencies" itself into a famine it would be an extremely funny tragedy, mostly because of the irony of "gommulism is when no food" arguments.
