So many things for the Tea Party to tear down, and quickly, after the mid-terms.
The best bet is probably for a conservative controlled House and Senate to change the budget from top-down to bottom-up.
That is, to require constitutional authority for all agencies for their very existence. Unless it is there, the assumption should be that they get NO funding, at all, except for nominal shut down costs.
If they are constitutionally authorized, then each agency will be reviewed and only its constitutional parts approved, skeletonizing those parts acting without authority.
Then, the temporary funding of those unconstitutional parts that would cause a public disaster or unconscionable harm unless they were wound down or replaced.
Enabling acts for the dismissal of “surplus” government employees, as well as defining what, if any, benefits they can keep.
Then separate those agencies that end or are severely downgraded as separate budget bills. Send them to Obama to veto or not, which doesn’t matter, because either way they are effectively unfunded. Give him at least the opportunity to claim credit for ending them.
Our elected “Conservative” republicans in the House ans Senate let this kind of crap through without even a mention? I thought their was a call for National ID a few years ago and it was defeated or at least those pushing it backed down. It was probably inserted into other legislation and then passed by those who said they were against it. I can see Alexander doing it that way, for our own good. Washington Generals and Harlem Globe Trotters.
