through its push to root out wasteful or fraudulent government spending. But that effort may also have come at a cost for taxpayers, with a new estimate from a nonpartisan research and advocacy group estimating that DOGE's actions will cost $135 billion this fiscal year.

The analysis seeks to tally the costs associated with putting tens of thousands of federal employees on paid leave, re-hiring mistakenly fired workers and lost productivity, according to the Partnership for Public Service (PSP), a nonpartisan nonprofit that focuses on the federal workforce.

PSP's estimate is based on the $270 billion in annual compensation costs for the federal workforce, calculating the impact of DOGE's actions, from paid leave to productivity hits. The $135 billion cost to taxpayers doesn't include the expense of defending multiple

Hollidork, we've been over this. The government cannot have "losses" that have to be "accounted for." Government does not produce anything that can be calculated as a "loss." Government can only exist by confiscating wealth from the productive in society who create it. If government revenues go down, then government "workers," who are basically all bloated leech parasites since not a single one of them produce anything of value, must be fired.

Are you claiming that all the useless parasites must be paid by the taxpayers and their salaries "accounted for?"

LOL-A-Day is just screaming in defense of the profligate status quo because that's what he's programmed to do.

The gov should provide incentivized tax cuts only to those who invest in jobs, technology, infrastructure & to help the local community. Not giving it out to companies that outsource jobs overseas or allow billionaires to stuff money into Swiss bank accounts.

Giving out massive tax breaks to the wealthy has been done since Reagan & where has it gotten you folks in America? Your country is $36 trillion in debt.

The US has so much wealth and yet its trapped at the top @Reggie_Essent

Yo, peepaw, get some new material for god's fucking sakes.

Good material is good material. All I have to is mention DOGE and you people start to sputter and spit and firebomb Tesla dealerships. Makes me think that some of you are benefiting from the graft, or perhaps know someone who is and think it's cool to steal from all the taxpayers.

That's how you Leftists are. You gonna get you some free shit.

It doesn't bother me in the least. It's a failure, like this presidency is...

But you enjoy your delusions. It's what pee paws do.

What doesn't bother you in the least?

The hundreds of millions of my tax dollars that have been stolen by corrupt Democrats at USAid and other places? It's, like, no big deal for you?

Why doesn't the massive corruption uncovered by DOGE "bother you in the least?"

I can't wait for the criminal referrals to start coming down. My message board experience will be decidedly enhanced by all the TDS retardery that will be going on with you lot.
