[quote=Anonymous][quote]There is so much waste in the federal government. [/quote]

Please identify what you consider to be waste at the scale where it could actually influence the Federal budget

[quote]The main job of our government is national defense. [/quote]

Weren't you paying attention to School House Rock as a child?

"We, the People, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and, secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our prosperity do ordain and establish this Constitution of the United States of America."

Seems like "common defense" was only one of the things they had in mind.

[quote]But, it has become everything to everyone - much of what they do could be better left to the states [/quote]

Since I was born and have mostly lived in states that are net exporters of tax dollars, my home would benefit from a change where my tax money stopped going to the residents of states that keep taking it, but, since I actually consider us all to be Americans, and such transfers of wealth are part of the Federal government's role in promoting the general welfare, I believe it's a good thing.[/quote]
