We could eliminate 80% of those stupid bureaucracies and still have a great government.
Our Federal budget should not be $4.8 trillion a year but more like $1.5 trillion.
Maybe 25% but not 80%. Of course I do not know each and every single mission of the agencies listed in the start off post so I'm guestimating.
As I posted earlier, some of the missions probably overlap with others, some are probably obsolete and some are not being run efficiently (not a newsflash I'm sure).
Additionally, facility reporting costs should show a reduction due to off-site and satellite working options. This will prove a huge cost savings to the tax payer.

Our Federal government is way too bloated.
We only need government for our most basic shared needs. Defense, courts, police, state department etc.
I don't mind paying a user fee when I buy fuel to pay for the roads because after all their ain't no such thing as a free lunch.
But all this other crap? We don't need it and we sure as hell can't afford it. We are over $20 trillion in debt buying crap we can't afford.
We sure as hell don't need welfare, subsides, entitlements, bailouts and grants. We don't need the filthy government taking our money for a forced retirement system.

Spin twist justify approve deflect all you want. Bottom line they take in $3T, they spend $4T. Cut, reduce, consolidate, sell, combine, change is in order. It is not rocket science. As long as you people keep providing cover for out of control spending, it will continue to the next collapse.
The stupid gullible morons, especially the dark ones like MarcAtl think it is only the white republicans that use loopholes.Each Office has Staff and Facilities. And of course a budget.
Why is the Federal Government involved in 70% of these? Would life in America decline if they just disappeared? You know each State also has a similar list.

Internal Revenue Service has a budget of TWELVE BILLION DOLLARS. Get that? $12,000,000,000 of your tax money comes right off the top just to pay a bunch of people to make sure you paid the right taxes. Meantime, with just a flat tax based off a percentage of the money you earn and spend, it could be done for
ZERO. And that would end all the loopholes for the rich.
IRS: a real nifty way of creating good paying jobs for a whole lotta people.
.......in my city they have street cleaners that we don't really need in most areas--especially the ''good'' areas...THEN they have MORE city employees who go to those streets to give out tickets if your car is parked when the cleaners come throughIt is not just Federal government, although they are probably the worst. It is also State, and Local (City) governments. The employees could easily be cut by 50% - 60% with NO reduction in services.
The amount of employees, large salaries, benefits, and PENSIONS with benefits for LIFE. Horribly wasteful to the American tax payer.
100% agree!
In my city, there are 2 full time workers who just drive around and make sure people are abiding by the watering rules...just as an example.
The city has real time water usage data. They should run a daily report and then contact the high users with an auto phone call and email.
...the local news have done stories where they find city employees who do nothing!!
---it's the same with the Feds
That shit drives me NUTS!
I read a story about a city in Cali that instituted a maximum height for HEDGES....then hired 2 people to go around and make sure everyone’s hedges were in compliance. They MUST find people who are violating the rules in order to justify their jobs.
The Hedge Department! So lefty...
Oh for fucks sake. There's an army of government workers in my state to govern septic systems in rural areas. Meanwhile the other day the city of Seattle once again spilled over 1 million gallons of raw sewage into Peugeot Sound killing the ecosystem and closing beaches due to their broken down sewage treatment system. Over the past 10 years there has been spill after spill with no consequence. Seattle wastes its tax dollars on stupid liberal crap while their sewage system is in disrepair.
^^^^^This. Instead of spending the money on REAL issues that government should do, they spend the money on Feel Good VOTE BUYING issues. It is criminal, and politicians AND bureaucrats need to be held accountable. This is MALFEASANCE.
another way to look at it is we are in HUGE debt because of all these offices
Federal Employees have not increased in 50 years even though our population has doubled
This is a better way to look at it...

DUH
Show me where I ever said that? Why do assholes like you always focus on irrelevancies instead of the actual larger point? That alone is a sign that you ain't too bright.You think you could eliminate every single person in the IRS by shifting to a flat tax?
Yep. Got myself a 100% inbred leftard jackass here. You claimed to be an expert on the matter (how else could you know I'm "ignorant"?), so OUT WITH IT "Admiral," show us some documentation that you know ANYTHING at all about tax collection and taxation to support that, any formal education or STFU you asshole and keep your stupid opinions to yourself. We could probably MAKE money on the deal, but all you care about like the usual USMB idiot troll is to prove it would still cost ONE DOLLAR so you can say I'm wrong claiming it could be zero deflecting from the real point which was what a HUGE overblown monstrosity our present revenue system is.Lies, ignorance, stupid, retarded.
