Do you think what DOGE is doing will trickle over to the private sector? If the govt still stands after it is gutted, Twitter still stands after removing 80% employees… what makes you think that every CEO won’t attempt to do the same to reduce costs at their companies? Wondering what industry besides healthcare will have job security in the future

I have thought this myself but…
1- twitter is very glitchy now and over run by bots and agendas.
2- “if the govt still stands” is a hell of a risk to take…
3- trump has the house, senate, presidency. Why is he resorting to all of these illegal actions to shut departments? He can just work with congress to get done what he wants to on the next budget cycle.

There are parts of Twitter that no longer work. Try to save a search, or delete a search you saved years ago. Doesn't work. On a social media app stuff like that doesn't matter much. But when they start cutting off money for cancer research, then we're getting serious. There probably are CEOs out there who still think Elon is smart, but I'm not sure they'd want his DOGE incels rattling around in their computer systems.

Twitter still stands but it’s worth a lot less than before Elon ruined it. Same with the government I fear. I think if anything, this will be an example of what not to do.

There are two BIG impacts of what DOGE is doing...

The "white collar" job market is already bad, but it is about to be flooded with skilled and experienced former government workers. Most Tech and similar jobs that already saw 100s of applications are going to see that number double. (Plus, the drain the unemployment services.)

A lot companies and communities are dependent on the grants and contracts that are being targeted by DOGE. For example, we may see a lot of the grants for renewable "green" energy research getting cut, resulting in companies laying off or even closing.

I don't know why people think healthcare will always be strong. It's not talked about but suicides are going to explode and especially for the elderly. AI is going to be a nightmare and we are heading to a dystopia within our lifetimes. UBI is not going to happen and even it does, it will not fulfill the soul and likely the rich would still get payments so all that extra money would help raise prices of assets. The lack of work will drive a ton of suicides especially when people age out of physical labor. Society has already been declining since nobody can afford a kid or a home. Youth unemployment in Europe is 25% or higher. The millennials are the first generation that likely will be worse off than their parents and it is not going get improve for the alphas and gen z with AI killing most white collar jobs. Also, Gen X supposedly has very low retirement savings. Outside of the wealth transfers after boomers die out, it is all over from here. India will be the innovation engine within a decade. America's time is over.
