You have been living this high life for decades and decades....there is no way I believe this administration is the ones that are going to fix the problem.......and...It seems it comes down to an information dispersion problem. The high life you refer to is the money printing and borrowing to infinity that the US government is guilty of doing... then spending it on things that take away from America.
DOGE is exposing hundreds of billions in excessive spending that does nothing to support the people that pay for it... at interest.
Elon and his high level tech guys are working for free because they understand the precarious situation the US is in. They don't want the dollar to collapse and take this country down to the lowest levels imaginable. Our countries financial rating did slip a spot under Obama, but we re still the cleanest shirt in the dirty laundry basket as most countries print fiat currency to keep pace with US inflation.
Meanwhile... we are racking up excessive cost with the MIC to keep protecting the world's shipping lanes as the Houthi's continue to shoot at us and foreign nations ships that transport goods for and to other countries. AKA... free and discounted protection for those that agreed but don't want to pay the 2% of the GDP they originally agreed to.
We are living one mistake away from something that nobody wants to experience.
Musk bought his way into this......and I believe is very much regretting this now as he ruined his brand....
Getting up on stage with a chainsaw depicting mass cuts while the people his actions are affecting are wondering how they will afford to live now that they have been laid off was a very stupid and ill conceived move on his part......
It's easy for people sitting on their couch to see these numbers of employees being cut and think "good, we can get rid of fat cat public servants"
It's not the fat cats that are being laid off, it is the clerks that process paperwork for average citizens to get their benefits, people who maintain food safety, protect the environment, repair and monitor nuclear systems, ensure flight safety, etc, etc.......Doge messed up and were forced to hire lots of these people back.....many of which already found other jobs abroad....
I kind of chuckle when I think of the role of Doge and how the president of this administration is spending millions upon millions of tax payer money going golfing or attending sporting events.....if he was that concerned about the economy, he'd be foregoing these lavish activities and setting a fugal example for others.......next you will tell me he is paying for these activities out of his own pocket......to that I and everyone else will have a hearty laugh.....
