Liberty frees US from excessive nameless bureaucrats.
On Day 1, *instantly* fire 50% of federal bureaucrats.
Here’s how: if your SSN ends in an odd number, you’re fired.
That downsizes government by half. Absolutely *nothing* will break as a result.
It doesn’t violate civil service rules because mass layoffs are exempt.
SHUT IT DOWN.

This avoids civil service protections: no bureaucrat can claim their firings were politically motivated.
Further firings can be executed with a chisel, but Step 1 needs to be an unrestrained chainsaw or else it just won’t happen.
NO WAY TO AVOID STEP ONE NEED MORE?
In September, Ramaswamy told podcaster Lex Fridman: "Get in there on day one, say that anybody in the federal bureaucracy who is not elected, elected representatives obviously were elected by the people, but the people who are not elected, if your social security number ends in an odd number, you’re out, if it ends in an even number, you’re in. There’s a 50% cut right there. Of those who remain, if your social security number starts in an even number, you’re in and if it starts with an odd number, you’re out. Boom. That’s a 75% reduction done. Literally, stochastically, okay, one of the virtues of that, it’s a thought experiment, not a policy prescription, but one of the virtues of that thought experiment is that you don’t have a bunch of lawsuits you’re dealing with about gender discrimination or racial discrimination or political viewpoint discrimination."

Cindi takes on her new role as Terminator.
In a chilling episode in which artificial intelligence seemingly turned on its human master, Google's Gemini AI chatbot coldly and emphatically told a Michigan college student that he is a "waste of time and resources" before instructing him to "please die."

Makes you wonder who trained Gemini's Cindi. |
