Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the FBI started out with the idea of assisting states with the problem of apprehending criminals who fled across state lines? Said problem resulting from poor communications between different states and jurisdictions? We do live in an internet era nowadays. Every PD in the country is connected to the internet and to nationwide police databases. Less able PD's can be assisted by their state police when it is warranted.

My contention is that the FBI has become more of a problem than the problem it was originally intended to fix. It is worse than ineffective or corrupt, it is simply obsolete.

I understand you view, but you are not seeing the problem from the governments point of view:

We must immediatly order the removal of all Slurpy machines from all 7-11's to protect our youth.
This could be accompished by implimenting a Slurpy machine buy back program paying up to $1.37 billion per spigot for each machine. The FBI may be able to be trained to do this and could be renamed the Federal Bureau of Slurpies.

This is one idea but I fear it may just create more Federal BS.
