If you have fewer people doing the jobs we ASK for, AND the number of employees MATCHES the jobs at hand, then that SAVES us
money.

I don't believe it... I lived it when I worked QA/QC at Nissan. The speeds at which the lines were running meant that many
workers had EXTRA time on their hands. Enough time to assign one more task AND cut workers.
We made more money while trimming the fat.

No. WHO said they're "shorting" the labor supply? Who said they had the EXACT number of employees to do the jobs, and do them
right?
DoGE isn't simply cutting jobs... they're trimming the fat, moron.
They're not going to trim too much fat.
They'll find the OPTIMUM number of employees who can do the job, and do it well.
There's way too much BLOAT, ESPECIALLY at the federal employee level.
They gave people jobs, JUST so they had a job.
Ampersene and Taquillia Jones were talking more than working.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
