Any way you slice it, hundreds of billions of dollars IS, in fact, a lot of money. Downplaying that just because you don't think it's enough really misses the point. It really is important to be doing these things. We should have been doing them all along. More importantly, the amount of fraud in the entitlements you mention is enormous! If DOGE roots out all the abuse, these programs may not only be solvent, they might actually end up being cashflow positive. Frustration leads to hyperbole. Don't allow that to creep into your thinking, though. Everything DOGE is doing is really huge. It's just that we need \*even more\* huge things. But I honestly believe they're coming...

I said politically, it is nice what they're doing. Cutting funding to deranged leftists is good and effectively shutting down NGOs is good. The reality is, that the trillions of dollars that make up the deficit are not being touched and they more than likely will not make an effort to cut thee actual spending. Also, one trillion is a thousand billions, therefore it's just a drop in the bucket.
