When asked whether respondents approved or disapproved of the job that Musk is doing within the federal government, a net 34 percent approve compared to 49 that disapprove.

Today, the Commission allocated the €500 million foreseen under the Act in Support of Ammunition Production. This will allow the European defence industry to ramp up its ammunition production capacity to 2 million per year by the end of 2025. Together, these programmes have a budget of almost €2 billion. Today’s steps towards the reinforcement of the European defence technological and industrial base are taken in the wake of the adoption of the first ever European Defence Industrial Strategy (EDIS) and the associated proposal for a European Defence Industry Programme.

They seem to have all their eggs in one basket. They intend to sink the Chinese ships as they make the long crossing, using thousands of long range anti ship missiles. My only worry is, what if the Chinese have developed an effective counter measure.

To square this circle, I believe two very different questions were asked.

"Do you agree with reducing fraud and waste in the federal government" 76% agree

"Do you agree with the way that Elon Musk is going about it" only 26% agree
