US PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM

The newly elected U.S. President, Donald Trump, announced on November 12, 2024, that he is delighted to appoint Elon Musk as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency ("DOGE"). Musk will assist them administration in dismantling government bureaucracy, reducing excessive regulations and expenditures, and restructuring federal agencies. "This will shake up the system and everyone involved in government waste, which is a lot of people!" said Musk, known for his straightforwardness.

Musk recently criticized U.S. space policy, particularly the Artemis program. On Christmas 2024, he stated: "The Artemis architecture is extremely inefficient because it’s a program that maximizes jobs, not results. Something entirely new is needed."

In his statement, Donald Trump further clarified the goals: "This will become the 'Manhattan Project' of our time. To drive this kind of drastic change, the Department of Government Efficiency will team up with the White House and the Office of Management and Budget to initiate large-scale structural reform and create an unprecedented entrepreneurial approach to government. Their work will be completed no later than July 4, 2026. A smaller government, with greater efficiency and less bureaucracy, will be the perfect gift to America on the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. I am confident they will succeed!"

For the first time in history, two entrepreneurs—one as the President of the United States and the other as an advisor to the Office of Government Efficiency—will join forces to launch a technological revolution in the public sector of the world’s most powerful economic force.
