You have yet to explain how this is an attempt to improve accountability in any way, shape, or form. All your comments in this thread are smug, vague nods to unrelated issues or platitudes. Neither you nor DOGE has presented anything resembling a coherent, logical plan. From your comment history it’s clear you have the mental capacity of a can of beans and I’m fucking appalled I (probably) have to live in a country where your votes influence policy decisions which affect my life.
I get that you're frustrated, so let me be specific. One concrete step toward accountability is DOGE worked with the treasury to make the 'reason' field mandatory for payouts. Previously, many transactions had no explanation, making it difficult to track where funds were going. Now, every payout requires a reason, making auditing possible and improving transparency.
On top of that, this change already had an impact—treasury was able to track down Social Security payouts going to people well beyond the standard human lifespan, something that likely wouldn't have been caught as easily before. If you have specific concerns, I'm happy to discuss them.

Please do share what you're referring to here.
oh you're referring to musk not understanding the "no data" condition as "150 year old benefits"?
