I would certainly add Big Government to the list. We don’t need a federal Deparment of Education. It should be axed, completely.

We don’t need a National Foundation for the Arts. Almost everything it supports goes to insiders and to academics who produce lousy, expensive art, often bought by government.

We don’t need a biased, lying, useless NPR.

We don’t need an EPA. We probably need some regulation, but that can be done at the state level, where it belongs. Then some competition would be introduced, as businesses moved even faster from the stupid states to the good ones.

And there’s plenty more. A couple of million federal workers need to be laid off. They are doing nothing useful, but burdening the economy.

Government unions, which were once illegal, should be illegal again. Don’t want to work for the government, work somewhere else.

None of that involves entitlements or people who are genuinely hard up or who have earned their retirements.

We need to revamp the tax code and remove the progressive approach that has dogged small business and the middle class for decades.

To me, the biggest joke in D.C. is the Dept. of Energy.
