[quote=Anonymous]I realize that many of you have little regard for Federal employees. But when it comes to "abolishing" agencies, I get the sense that the average citizen has NO idea the depth of these agencies' responsibilities or the need for them in everyday life. Ask how the government reduction movement on the state level worked for states like Kansas and La. You can't abolish agencies and shrink government until you FIRST determine what programs need to be jettisoned or kept. Efficacy studies would take years to do properly. And for every job you cut, you likely add it somewhere else given the promises being made by the candidates. Despite the rhetoric of the day, no politician is going to bet his career on some half assed effort to "shrink" government. So any effort to abolish agencies would take years to achieve and political bulldozing that no one really wants to take on, no matter what they say.[/quote]
