Wozniak Criticizes Musk's DOGE for Aggressive Government Cuts

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has criticized the mass layoffs and budget cuts implemented by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), describing the approach as reckless and too aggressive. Speaking at a tech conference, Wozniak emphasized the need for precise reforms rather than sweeping cuts, suggesting that such drastic measures are not conducive to effective governance. He accused both Musk and former President Trump of 'bullying' in their treatment of Ukraine and expressed concern over Musk's growing influence in politics. Wozniak called for a more surgical approach to government efficiency instead of the 'sledgehammer' tactics employed by DOGE, which have resulted in significant job losses. His comments reflect a broader debate about the role of tech leaders in government decision-making and the potential consequences of their policies. Other business figures have also voiced concerns about the chaos and legal challenges stemming from DOGE's methods.
