McKinsey's job is to convince retarded C suite members to adopt changes and reforms that were already suggested numerous times by the rank and file peons and to take the blame if they go south while charging $1000/hr for "consulting services."Fuelman » 19 Dec 2025, 11:03 am » wrote: ↑ I doubt America is that much different than the UK.

A new approach to improving government productivity
aking government more productive offers substantial rewards for the public. A McKinsey study across 42 countries found that if public services could reach the productivity levels of the leading performers in their peer groups, the improvement would be worth an estimated $3.5 trillion per year.1 Since then, governments have spent more on public services, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.2 Allowing for this increase and inflation, the productivity gap could be well over $5 trillion per year in 2024. These additional resources could be redirected to further improve public services, invested to meet longer-term needs (for example, those of aging populations), or used to tackle intensifying fiscal challenges
Public sector productivity in the United Kingdom, as in many countries, has been declining since 1995. According to our research, between 1995 and 2008, public sector productivity decreased by an average of 0.1 percent per year. Since the 2008 financial crisis, the decline has accelerated to 0.9 percent per year. Overall, public sector productivity has decreased by about 20 percent since 1995. In contrast, private sector productivity in the United Kingdom has increased by 50 percent over the same period, and in the United States, it has increased by 150 percent. The public has noticed this disparity. In a survey conducted in November 2023, 78 percent of respondents stated that public services had deteriorated.5

So I'll take that as support for our government bloat with a 6% raise every year.LowIQTrash » 22 Dec 2025, 1:01 pm » wrote: ↑ McKinsey's job is to convince retarded C suite members to adopt changes and reforms that were already suggested numerous times by the rank and file peons and to take the blame if they go south while charging $1000/hr for "consulting services."

No need for a consultant, as you say the peeons already have the answers, we just need someone with big enough balls to do something about it.
Perhaps the best illustration of why America desperately needs the Department of Government Efficiency is that government workers cost 42.1% more than their private-sector counterparts, according to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Either government workers are the best and the brightest around, producing world-class results, or the taxpayers aren’t getting their money’s worth.
Potential Savings and Identified WasteOverall Productivity Opportunity:
A McKinsey report from September 2023 estimated a total potential productivity improvement opportunity of approximately $750 billion annually across all U.S. government levels. This equates to more than $2,000 per U.S. resident.
Identified Cost Savings: The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has reported that addressing duplication, overlapping programs, and other cost savings measures has resulted in approximately $725 billion in financial benefits since 2011, with billions more possible if further actions are taken.
Improper Payments: The federal government made an estimated $236 billion in "improper payments" (payment errors, overpayments, underpayments, etc.) in fiscal year 2023 alone.

It may surprise you to learn that not everything in lif3 is about "efficiency." For example, most people in business (and government) promot3 those they like. It has very little to do with "merit" and "hard work" as a certain group has led you to believe unless you happen to think no white engineers are qualified enough to staff the countless job positions handed to Indian H1Bs (*snicker*)Fuelman » 22 Dec 2025, 3:43 pm » wrote: ↑ So I'll take that as support for our government bloat with a 6% raise every year.

Most people will say they want "efficiency" and "cost cuttinG" measures applied to groups they don't like while secretly relying upon or even promoting nepotistic practices in their own ranks, unless all these small business owners just happen to not be able to find a worthy successor other than their own kin
