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.
The only way for the nation to recover and survive is to reshackle the Federal government within the Constitution. The founders understood that was the only way it would work and contrary to accepted modern thought, some things do not change.
Federal agencies CAN and MUST be brought back under control, there are NO options.
