Medicare, unlike Medicaid is actually administered by the federal govt so would need to remain. Sending it to the states would be a disaster. It’s actually the most efficiently run govt agency. States can't effectively track a person's earnings over the decades or when they switch from state to state. There are some programs that actually need to be managed by the federal govt.

The only way to make government run better would be to take some functions from the federal govt and move it to the state entirely. Things like block grants and payment matches are an inefficient and wasteful way to implement programs that states actually run, ie Medicaid.

Govt contract procurement is also wasteful. An example would be how govt buys fatigues (battle dress uniform) for the military. Rather than porential designs being submitted by vendors and the govt choosing the one they want, they go through a paid design process separate under each branch and then choose the one they want. So vendors that lose still get paid similarly to the winning vendor. And the silliest part is that marines fatigues are slightly different that army fatigues though they are used in the same theaters. Meaning there was a wholly separate procurement process even though ultimately the purchased fatigues aren't really different.

Typical swamp answer. The bloated top heavy people don't know how to be more efficient so claim they need more money and more people.

Except neither will draw a salary or be actual government employees, so as close to 100% efficient as it gets.

i'll believe it when i see it.
a) it wont be an actual department like justice, hhs, commerce, etc.
b) i seriously doubt they will dig deep into the workings of departments and/or agencies and recommend what to eliminate or reduce or combine
c) but they'll be able to say "we did our job. oh, the deficit tripled? no problem."
