This may not be what you thought you were voting for, but it's exactly what we were voting against.

Personally, I think the goal is to fire as many educated liberals as possible, simply out of spite. That's it.

I agree that there are better approaches to eliminating waste, but that is assumes that the goal of government is to be efficient. I would hope that it is first effective at achieving the goals "we the people" want from it. Value should be set by the market, right? Unfortunately, I think that the administration sees a "win/win" whether they prove to be the heroes that find waste or the arsons that just burn it all down. Our dependency on them to then "save us all" will grow. I have always wanted government that provides services and protections effectively to the weakest and poorest of our citizens. Is our only choice big government vs. a strong man government? It doesn't have to be.
