My point is exactly that. There was zero attempt at framing those tradeoffs. No studies. No impact analysis. No time to address the challenge. Just a random downsizing of people not protected by federal statutes (less than 2 years in role) and random funding cuts.This is the thing citygator, and it is that we cannot have 100% of everything our hearts desire. There are tradeoffs. Just the other day, another big rig driver caused 3 tragic deaths. During the Obama years in our compassion we allowed illegal aliens to drive trucks. Since then, there have been numerous deaths and accidents because they can't speak or read English. Far more deaths than any CDC cuts but no liberals care about that or mention it because they think everyone who wants to be here should be and if that causes deaths, crimes and misery, so what. They can feel good in their "compassion".
To assert that cuts of personnel at those agencies cause deaths is a scare tactic. You have no proof of that. Let's talk about the sped limit issue. Does the increase cause more deaths? Probably. But there's the thing. If the speed limit were 50 and studies showed that saved even more lives, do you want to crawl along on a freeway at 50?
There are trade-offs. The liberal mindset is that if just ONE life is saved, and it costs billions, we should o it. That is, until we run out of money for all these things and programs the liberals want.
They found out after firing many people that many were critical to immediate problems. Nuclear, disease, weather, FAA landing safely. Why did they find that out? Cuz they done fucked up and just randomly did shit.
