“An easier way is to simply wipe out entire agencies wholesale. There are 7400+ Federal Government agencies; there is overlap and duplicity all over the place. Trash half of these federal agencies as a start.”

For the agencies remaining cut out all of the contracting work and give the new cabinet secretary firing authority for an across the board 20% cut in the workforce. Use the cut to get rid of the dead wood, political hacks, and underperformers.

Next step, have the cabinet secretary do a grounds up zero based staffing and budget plan with every budget line item prioritized. Then, using the 80/20 rule, cut out the bottom 80% of the budget line items. At that point the bureaucracy might be manageable.

I agree. GREAT strategy for the next President. Make sure you tell him! (Notice I didn’t say, ‘Her’ as in you-know-who - who wouldn’t listen anyway!)

We used the 80/20 Rule with our store products. Man, what a difference that has made. No more slow sellers taking up precious Retail real estate!

“For the agencies remaining cut out all of the contracting work and give the new cabinet secretary firing authority for an across the board 20% cut in the workforce.”

Most of the remaining 80% would be composed of libtards. It is essential to get *all* of them out.

“Use the cut to get rid of the dead wood, political hacks, and underperformers.”

Oddly, it is more important to get rid of libtards than underperformers.
