I mean we can just say they aren’t about efficiency because they don’t research anything before they start making cuts it’s simply I don’t like USAID let’s gut it, I don’t like the SSA so let’s gut it.
They know what they’re doing even if Trump somehow gets the boot we’re looking at probably 50 years or more to get back our world position if they don’t fuck our economy up so badly it’s effectively impossible to comeback.
Effectivity is if you’re even doing the right thing at all.
Not exactly. It’s more about whether or not you’ve accomplished the thing you set out to do, irrespective of resources and irrespective of “right” or “wrong”.
So in this case, if DOGE’s actual goal is the dismantling of the administrative state (literally spelled out in Project 2025), then I would say that they’ve been very effective.
They don’t seem to care about the efficiency aspect.
Remember, they’re talking about efficiency all day long, but they’re not mentioning effectivity with a single word.
Efficiency is how fast/cheap/ressource-less you can get something done. Effectivity is if you’re even doing the right thing at all.
You can be super efficient, but still not be effective by doing something, so…

They just use the word efficiency because it sounds good. Its not like they actually care about any of what you said.
