How to Really Fix Government
DOGE is not the way to go.
I’m happy to announce that Reform for Results has just launched its new web site:
Our group, consisting of specialists in administrative law, public administration, and with direct senior government experience, was founded a little more than a year ago in advance of the 2024 election. While we agree with the current administration that the U.S. bureaucracy does indeed need reform, we think that its approach has been weakening rather than building state capacity. We hope in the coming period to outline in Project Phoenix a better path for rebuilding American government, along the lines that I’ve been trying to outline in my “Deep State” series in American Purpose. Please stay tuned for more posts on this front.

As a Stanford alum and retired senior executive at Bechtel, the global engineering and construction firm and major US government contractor, I have been viewing the DOGE activities as what we in infrastructure construction call “site prep.” Accordingly your objective to rebuild after DOGE resonates. THAT’s the approach to take to the current times, make plans for the future; stop exclaiming about outrages, etc.
So glad you are doing this.
