Now, they’re frantically trying to reverse course.
This is the opposite of efficiency.

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...
The FAA is facing a major crisis without a leader because Elon Musk pushed him out

Trump ousts at least 12 independent inspectors general in late-night purge
