It is TIME to DownSize DC!!!!

Close Entire Departments! (EPA, FDA, Dept. of Education, Department of Energy) CLOSE THEM.

Ask this question: What would be the very worst thing that would happen if they did not exist.

Answer, things would get better quickly on our own.

It is TIME to force Congress & Senate to telecommute most of the year from their home districts, under the thumb of the electorate and away from the lobbyists. The Constitution states they shall meet at least 1 time per year and specifies the date. (has been changed) It would change the center-of-gravity of the Federal Government away from DC and toward the States.

The Texas Legislature meets 1 time every 2 years, unless the Governor calls a special session. It has worked well for a very long time, there is no reason it would not for the Federal Government.

Abolish the EPA, FCC , for starters.

And deport illegals.

Those 3 things would help America and freedom greatly.

“Ask this question: What would be the very worst thing that would happen if they did not exist.

I really, really, really agree with your assessment. What’s missing, though, is what trees and lamposts to hang these fascist and commie democrats.

As newly elected Congreeman, Allen West (R-FLA), brilliantly said: " The
citizenry do not want their representatives to look like NASCAR drivers with
corporate sponsors written all over them. They want to feel they own their reps."
