> I would really like my tax money used more efficiently
Except by most accounts so far it was being used efficiently by the federal workforce. This whole debacle will end up costing the US tax payer more money. See cutting the IRS or USAID which will probably lead the US to bailing out farmers. And if they privatize, then it'll be even more expensive.
I mean if they privatize USAID it’s a tremendous opportunity to loot on a scale we have not seen. Same thing if they privatize the IRS or Social Security. Think about all the money that could be invested in their friends’ enterprises out of the treasury float or the SS trust fund.
