There is no way Musk and Ramaswamy can slash $2 trillion out of the $7 trillion budget without cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid (which make up close to $5 trillion). So if that's the goal, they're talking about reducing these programs. The math is simple.
Friendly reminder: The USG spends $290 billion on personnel. If you fired EVERYONE who worked for the federal government, you’d save 5% of the budget. You know where most of it goes? Defense and back to us in Social Security and Medicare.
Musk, Ramaswamy vow “mass head-count reduction” in federal government
