The Trump Administration

Actually, the great corporations grow without adding overhead. They take advantage of advancing technologies and challenge the norm of always doing things the way they've always been done.

So "great corporations" don't ever grow their workforce?

 

[Section 204and5]

The federal government has been doing more with less people as individual productivity has surged. I'm trying to figure out where all the bloat is as we have fewer feds with a much larger population to serve. And indiscriminately firing people makes zero sense,

Sure they do. Nothing is absolute.

Are you counting on Trump and Musk to take advantage of advancing technologies to take the place of the agencies and departments they are destroying? Don't hold your breath.

I'm personally not counting on anything. Just making a point that adding people to the equation isn't always the answer.

I am sure there will be legit criticisms to this but it is a good nuanced look at the federal workforce.

Umm, he didn't say workforce, he said overhead. Those are two entirely different concepts. Yes a firm can grow without increasing its overhead. Most firms want to control their SG&A. The Federal Government has no qualms about hiring. Government spending pushes out private investment.
