I understand your anger, but you cut with too wide a swath. You’re targeting the good with the bad, and that’s nonsense. Unless you’re an anarchist, you must realize some government is necessary. If you study economic models, you’ll realize that too small a government is actually just as bad as too much government. There’s a point where government actually encourages and multiplies private economic activity. We’re past that point now, but that doesn’t mean all government activities (and employees) are bad. Yes, we need to cut the federal government, but let’s not get carried away. What do you want good people to do? Do you want conservatives to refuse government employment? Only the leftists would be left.

I'll ask you again. Can you name the specific, enumerated powers of the Federal government?

Do you even know where to locate the list of said powers?
