This is a good program that should be retained. But theres a nagging thing bothering me about the whole dynamic going on with DOGE critics. You get mad at the waste this represents, the unfairness. Ask your average middle class worker how they feel about the taxes taken out of their paycheck being wasted in the massive amount of waste fraud and abuse we all know happens in government. That is massively unfair. It one thing to lose a job because of a policy change. It’s quite another to have every paycheck docked at threat of state violence to fund the kind of stuff we are hearing about. Budget cuts and shutdowns are normal in business and all too rare in government. The argument that this or that program is good isn’t enough. But we see all these concerns and complaints based on basically that. This ignores the scale and gravity and historical incalcalitrant nature of the problem we actually have to deal with now. It’s not an option anymore. So can we please stop the wailing and gnashing of teeth and absolutely give feedback on what programs are good and why they deserve to be reinstated. I have a feeling they want to wait a year or two to find out what actually mattered.
