You're right, if they create/bloat more agencies than they remove/shrink, they're failing to do their job. However, we already know what government looks like without an agency tasked with keeping government small. Maybe you need fire to fight fire?

I agree, of course, but choosing which depts and jobs to slash would need to be done by people and people organize themselves into depts in government. Maybe they can subsume some other agency rather than creating a new one.

Is Elon Playing With Us?

I love Ron Paul, but he's 89 years old.  I would be all for this department with the old guy at the helm, but I can't imagine Elon as a government bureaucrat. 

Also, creating a new department, with a staff, offices, etc, seems like growing government. Simply slashing useless departments and jobs would be real efficiency.
