President-elect Donald Trump has tapped billionaire Elon Musk to lead a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) with Vivek Ramaswamy, a pharmaceutical company CEO and briefly a Republican presidential candidate. DOGE’s primary goals will be to dismantle the government bureaucracy and cut wasteful spending during the second Trump administration. Ambitious goals, indeed, but can Musk and Ramaswamy’s efforts really improve the federal government’s efficiency?

Yes: Bloomberg columnist and economics professor Tyler Cowen says DOGE can actually do some good. The Trump effort to deregulate our economy deserves bipartisan support — so long as people temper their expectations.
