Critique of Doge's Approach to Budget Cuts

The approach that Doge takes towards budget cuts is criticized for its lack of thoroughness and insight. It focuses primarily on reducing headcount rather than identifying specific areas where waste and inefficiency exist. This method risks damaging vital government services, as seen by the significant employee reductions in agencies like the Department of Agriculture and the National Institute of Health, where valuable personnel were let go despite previously favorable performance reviews. Critics argue that a more strategic and empathetic approach is necessary to ensure governmental functions can continue effectively while still saving taxpayer money.
