1. Regulation
“The world is suffering slow strangulation by overregulation. Every year, the noose tightens a little more,” Musk posted Wednesday. “We finally have a mandate to delete the mountain of choking regulations that do not serve the greater good.” He wants a broad review of regulations to determine “which ones are sensible and which ones are not.” Musk has personally experienced crippling regulation while trying to launch SpaceX rockets. In October, he sued California regulators and accused them of “shamelessly breaking the law” after they cited his political views in their decision to reject more rocket launches.
2. Unnecessary Departments
He also wants to shutter hundreds of the more than 400 federal departments. During an interview last month, Musk pointed out that the United States creates more than one federal agency a year on average. “That seems a lot. That seems crazy. I think we should be able to get away with 99 agencies,” Musk said.
3. Spending
“We’re going to make the spending lower, and if somebody’s got a better idea for how to make the spending lower tell us, but if we don’t we’re going to bankrupt the country, and so we’ve got to do something, and it’s got to be some pretty big moves,” Musk said during a town hall in Pennsylvania last month. “Drain the swamps. There’s so many swamps,” he added. He joked that he will probably need “quite a significant security team because someone might literally go postal on me — from the Post Office.”

How Elon Musk’s DOGE Will Work
President-elect Donald Trump has tapped Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an effort to trim the fat under which the federal government labors — namely, a sprawling bureaucracy and runaway government spending. Musk spawned the idea for the...
