Yep, It is TIME to Drain the Swamp! It is TIME to DownSize DC!
Eliminate entire departments (Education, EPA, etc.)
Move any worthwhile functions back to the State level where it can be more efficiently and more logically administered.
Time to force Congress & Senate to telecommute most of the year, from back in their home districts under the thumbs of the electorate. And away from the lobbyists.
Can you imagine the reduction in operating expenses by moving the staff away from DC.
Just think about it.
Totally agree. The Base Closing Commission is a great example of a federal entity gone wrong. They formed it to cut waste from the gov’t by closing bases that weren’t necessary. They cut alright, and since these things take on a life of their own, they’re still cutting, closing bases we relied on to train our reserves or to defend that area.
And savings? They gave all the land to the local yokels to calm them down. Yet you can’t kill this or any other federal force once it’s born.
“Move any worthwhile functions back to the State level where it can be more efficiently and more logically administered.”
Unless you remove the ability of politicians to buy and sell favors, even at the State level, the corruption continues.
