Musk said that the aim was to "right-size" federal bureaucracy and that getting people to retire early on full benefits was a good thing.
But he added: "We were told the most number of people that could retire possibly in a month is 10,000 because all the retirement paperwork is written down on a piece of paper. Then it goes down a mine."
Musk said: "Instead of working in a mineshaft, carrying manila envelopes to boxes in a mine, you could do practically anything else, and you would add to the goods and services of the United States in a more useful way."
It smacks of fiction but hell, come to find out Fed ATC systems are still using floppy disks.
Top Men.
Maybe they were worried about a Mineshaft Gap sure enough!
