DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, and Still Overstating Its ProgressElon Musk now says his group will produce only 15 percent of the savings it promised. But even that estimate is inflated with errors and guesswork.
He previously said his powerful budget-cutting team could reduce the next fiscal year’s federal budget by $1 trillion, and do it by Sept. 30, the end of the current fiscal year. Instead, in a cabinet meeting on Thursday, Mr. Musk said that he anticipated the group would save about $150 billion, 85 percent less than its objective.

 Even that figure may be too high, according to a New York Times analysis of DOGE’s claims.

 That’s because, when Mr. Musk’s group tallies up its savings so far, it inflates its progress by including billion-dollar errors, by counting spending that will not happen in the next fiscal year — and by making guesses about spending that might not happen at all.
Fundamental Supply Side Assumptions..

Looks like Grifty, with FOX's and the NYPost's eager assistance, pulled another Big Con on the Stupidest People Alive.

G'ddammn are they **** stupid..

Another Veghead original: post a link, copy a paragraph, add a punchline, and vanish before anyone asks for your actual opinion. At this point, your OPs are basically PowerPoint slides without the presentation.
 
Let’s assume for a moment the NYT analysis is correct—DOGE’s projected savings are way off. Fair enough. But here’s the actual question, not that we expect an answer (you’re sitting at dodge number 75 and climbing):

If the revised $150 billion in projected savings is still greater than what previous administrations have managed through bureaucratic efficiency, isn’t it still something? Or is your position that unless a plan is 100% fulfilled, it has zero value?

 Of course, I expect the usual pattern:

• Step 1: Ignore the question.
• Step 2: Ask three unrelated ones.
• Step 3: Demand I prove a quote you already posted.
• Step 4: Call me a moron and strike through everything.

That’s how we got to 75 dodges, after all. Just giving you the respect of setting expectations.
