Question, do you think the federal government can be reformed?

Yes, I do.

If so, what would it take to reform it and roll it back, and to what would you roll it back to?

I believe nothing short of removing every elected, appointed, and hired government office holder, official, and worker, will be required to reform the U.S. government.

Every single person connected to the federal government, in any way, must be removed from 'service' to excise the rot that infects it. We would then need to set about refilling only those positions that are absolutely essential to the most basic functions of the government.

At the same time, you'd have to kick all of the lobbyists, academics, media trolls, money men, foundations, think tanks, consultants, advisors, bimbos, ex-politicos, crony capitalists, and assorted left-wing detritus off Capitol Hill, too.

Doing the above will open the door to honestly reforming our government, but how? A revolution at the ballot box isn't going to get it done, no matter how many Republicans we put in office. Screaming our heads off on the internet isn't going to get it done, no matter how many of us complain.

Only one thing can accomplish what I'm talking about, and that's real action. I mean, butts out of the chairs and into the streets. By the tens of millions. There doesn't have to be bloodshed or violence to accomplish this - just numbers. Overwhelming, unrelenting, overpowering numbers of determined Americans, all showing up and saying, "You're All Fired!"

What's needed is a force that is so huge, it cannot be resisted.

As far as where I'd "roll it back to", I'd say about the year 1900 ought to do it.
