Clinton asked for and received the resignation of every appointee in the AG’s office in every state.
We are aware that the bureaucracy is the roadblock to change in government. Congress can change that by voiding all government employee union representation.
Unions were illegal in government before Kennedy. Many states have become right to work. The feds can do the same.
The rules for termination can be rewritten to include ideology.
Pay scales can be substantially reduced.
The size and scope of government must in any case be substantially reduced, by, say, 90%.
These would be good beginning steps.
As others have remarked upthread, political appointees can be purged, but the career civil service people are very, very hard to shift. It would be extremely interesting to see a President attempt to dismantle the civilian personnel system, but I don’t expect it in my lifetime.
When the mushroom clouds disperse, there will be nothing left but cockroaches and government employees with six-figure salaries, huge pension guarantees, and the best health insurance plans.
The federal agencies then "invent" Committees to do this. Then "Administrative Rules," after a comment period, will be published in the "Code of Federal Regulations," which magically turns them into law........ using federal fairy dust.
So Boobamba is shielded from responsibility---he doesn't have to take the hit. Behind closed doors, he tells federal factotums what he wants.....and faster than you can say "so sue me", eternal progressive control of the US govt commences.
=====================================================
THE "DELEGATION" HORROR STORY--A Federal agency MO since 1946. It's down to a science: (1) publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), (2) make the comment period really short, (3) stonewall any negative comments, and, (4) publish the rule, which (5) NOW has the force of US law. No Congressman was ever involved, and Boobamba doesn't leave his DNA on it. Yet again, why "Delegation" is ominous for liberty---why the writing of administrative law by federal agencies - is un-Constitutional (hat tip to FReeper Regulator.)
I’ve been waiting for Trump to unload both barrels on the Bureaucracy but it hasn’t come yet. I support Scott Walker for VEEP to accomplish the purge of the commies in the Federal Government. A combo of resignation requests, wage and bonus cuts and overall budget cuts would greatly hasten the job. Finally eliminating unionized federal employees as the crescendo.
