How about eliminatiing the DOE, consolidating ATF, TSA, et al into the FBI? Then trim your burgeoning Congressional Staffs!

Yeah, like all the ones not specifically mentioned in the US Constitution.
Pffft~ They just don`t get it.
To: IbJensen
HEW could be removed wholesale. Those areas are the responsibility of the States under our late, lamented Constitution.

There are so many possibilities - foreign aid and money to the UN should be on the list.

Sorry, I didn’t hear Hatch mention one department or program he would get rid of. Give me the knife. You wouldn’t recognize the government in less than 24 hours.

How about taking a close look at Article 1, Section 8. If a federal program is not explicitly mandated, then strike it. I’m sure it won’t strike out any more than about 3 trillion out of the 3.8 trillion proposed budget.

Implement a flat tax that can be completed on a post card sized form and you would be able to get rid of almost all of the IRS.

EVERY department created in the ‘70s as an effort to appease the hippies needs to be disbanded posthaste.

Yes, every entitlement program, for example. They should all be given the axe.

Let's see....the NEA,ACORN,SEIU,the EPA....cutting them off at the knees would be a good start.

If we can do without them, why why why are they still up & running? Why didn't Sen Hatch move ages ago to shut them down? Can't he & others see what a total joke they are?

Hatch is a pencil-necked geek. Somehow this ‘Republicrat’ got emasculated during the Clinton regime. They probably have pictures of Hatch french-kissing a poodle...or something even more perverted.

We should do a Survivor type reality series. Each department has to compete to stay in existence. At the end of the show one department gets cut.

Start with the White House since there aren’t any old white guys living there anymore.
