They claim to be for efficiency, but their ideas around how to be more efficient are funnel money into private corporations (owned by their donors) for no apparent reason.
This is why we have private prisons, student loan servicers, and a the owner of a student loan debt collection agency overseeing student loan reforms.
Not to say Democrats don't do the same shit, but there's an undeniable difference between Trump appointments and Obama appointments. Trump had no problem putting into power Scott Pruitt, Rex Tillerson, Ajit Pai, and Betsy fucking DeVos -- all of whom are absolutely corrupt business leaders whose entire purpose in government life is to shovel as much money as possible from tax payers into their own pockets.
Those people weren't personally picked by Trump, they were recommended by high-ranking Republicans.
