If you could eliminate cabinet departments, then which one would you eliminate first?

FBI. The three departments you want eliminated should be the most heavily funded. Investing in our citizens should be the number one use of our tax money.

Eliminate the FBI, HUD, ED, and HHS. Tenements is not investing. Fat Americans and uneducated Americans is not investing.

All cabinets need a good going over to see if they can be improved. I am one who believes we need some sort of national Policy on education. We are falling way behind and to me it is a national security issue.

But we weren't falling behind until we had a Dept of Education. When it was made a Cabinet position in 1979, the USA was No. 1 in the world in education. Now we're way down on the list in Math, Science, reading comprehension.

If I had no other reason than wanting that Department mothballed/eliminated/removed, that fact is sufficient reason.
