If I were Trump, I would have a team of experts make a list of every department and agency in existence in 1960. Then note those which have been added since then. All entities should have their budgets accounted for from inception through present day. Calculate year-to-year growth and chart.

Now that the table is set, decide which agencies, both old and new should be eliminated. Department of Education is an easy one since education should be at the State level. Whack Education. New EPA. Eliminate the EPA, and empower the states with environment issues. continue on...

This is easy and Trump will be all set to execute his plans with Congress in January 2017.

Good plan.!

He’s a visionary.

Just as long as The Donald, if questioned as to which agencies would be under consideration for elimination under his watch, does not commit the same error that Rick Perry did under prodding from Mitt Romney in 2011, regarding the Executive Branch offices he would eliminate.

On the debate of November 9, 2011, Perry was discussing his jobs plan and his flat tax plan when he said: “And I will tell you, it is three agencies of government when I get there that are gone. Commerce, Education, and the... what’s the third one there? Let’s see.”

Romney chimed in with, “EPA?”

Flustered, Perry responded, “EPA, there you go, no...” with laughter from the candidate and the audience.

What Perry meant to say, but could not get it out until later in the debate, was the Department of Energy.

But by then, the moment had long passed for Rick Perry.

It goes a lot farther back then 1960 their are a lot of extra constitutional federal agencies. NF, NP, BLM for three.

All those agencies lands could and should be given over to state control.

Trump doesn't need experts. He is a LOT smarter than all the experts combined. Did you know even though he didn't get an MBA from Wharton School of Business, he stayed at the Holiday Inn Express across the street?

I’d lower that limit to 1776. Then compare vs. Constitution and ZERO-out all not found in A1S8.

All properties that are not forts, postal roads revert back to the State from which they reside...

The States are already ‘empowered’, so even less for Congress to worry with.

THEN we can start figuring what the People owe in taxes for the TRUE cost of govt.
