The Pentagon inhales trillions of dollars so taxpayers pay $50k for staplers and 2 trillion dollars for the f-35 fiasco

Raytheon and Lockheed martin will rape and discard this guy like a used condom

Elon musk or Jeff bezos would be waaaaay better. Ability to shred costs and fix a bloated organization >>>>>> military experience

As long as this guy gets rid of the “push up, push back” IPPS-A bullshit, I won’t complain. I’ve never signed the same exact document so many fucking times since they introduced that.

As an aside: why would you need/want a corporate bigwig running the DoD, when most of the convoluted processes and clutter are there due to corporate bigwigs trying to run the DoD. Look at the McKinsey-led ACFT debacle, and that’s just a fitness test. OERs/NCOERs are a relic of 80s style corporate management. It’s easy to find sources of waste and excess in the military, but anyone who’s been employed by a big corporation knows that they aren’t exactly super efficient either.

I’ll also go out on a limb and say that the DoD doesn’t have a spending problem; it has a lack of spending problem. A key assumption for all these penny pinchers is that the DoD can go out and treat its contractors like they are standalone businesses and the pentagon can buy goods off the shelf. In reality, the cutting edge technology is going to be classified and can’t be sold to an ally. The last big round of Pentagon efficiency “improvements” resulted in the consolidation of most major contractors into just a handful, and they aren’t keeping production lines open forever while the government hymns and haws. DoD needs to do a lot more shooting, and buy (and use) more equipment if it wants to maintain its edge.

Uh huh. I simply refuse to believe the US needs to spend even more on defense even as it's being raped by the defense primes. Should it invest more in certain shit like hypersonics? Yeah maybe. But I bet a ruthless cost cutter could find a ton of fucking bloat if we let him

trumps rabid base doesn't know or care about that sort of thing. the 'cool' black-pilled highly online supporters celebrate the concept of retarded appointments and the gutting of experts and technocrats in government. it'll ultimately just create inefficiency and rancor within his administration but that would be the case no matter who he picked. trump's lack of insight and disregard for everything but his image nullifies good and bad decisions.
