Is Elon's review of federal programs happening a little too quickly? What would a better way of doing this be?

He's a political appointee. I have reservations about how he hasn't divested himself of his private equities and his unprecendented access to secure systems for millions of people. Whatever, it doesn't even matter.

From the fiscal conservative in me, the concept of the DOGE is not necessarily good or bad. Make the cuts, or at least the recs to do so -- It's advisory anyway and sure, let's slash the bloat where it exists. But what I fail to see is how we are doing qualititative assessments on these recommendations so lightning quick -- especially from a team of 18-24 year old tech bros with no real policy or subject-matter expertise in the areas that they are reviewing. Yes, get away from the establishment types with entrenched interests, but fixing the engine by beating it repeatedly with a mallet doesn't seem like the way either.

Am I off base to be concerned about how this is going down?
