I agree 100%. Eliminate the Department of Education (a state and local function, not federal). Eliminate EPA. Eliminate Department of Labor. Eliminate Energy and transfer its nuclear weapons responsibilities to the Department of Defense. Eliminate large parts of HUD/HHS. Put VA back in the Department of Defense. There's more (including a large chunk of the treasonous FBI and most or all of the equally treasonous CIA - those two organizations were way too quick to lead an internal coup against the duly elected President of the United States).
Right you are. Recall that the Dept. of Ed. was created by Jimmy Carter as a sop to teacher's unions. It has been metastasizing since then.
