I say get rid of Labor, Housing and Urban Development, Energy, Education, the EPA and the Small Business Administration.

Move Dept of the Interior to a large city in the middle of the country, like Oklahoma City, same for Agriculture - Des Moines Iowa would be good. Move Transportation to Austin - so they can be close to Elon . Move Homeland Security to Brownsville TX - so they have a front row seat to the border.


Department of State


Department of the Treasury


Department of Defense


Department of Justice

Department of the Interior


Department of Agriculture


Department of Commerce

Department of Labor


Department of Health and Human Services


Department of Housing and Urban Development


Department of Transportation


Department of Energy


Department of Education


Department of Veterans Affairs


Department of Homeland Security


The following positions have the status of Cabinet-rank:



Environmental Protection Agency

Office of Management & Budget

United States Trade Representative


United States Mission to the United Nations

Council of Economic Advisers


Small Business Administration

Department of energy to Houston makes sense.

The "Fossil Energy" part yes. Other than that, make them stay at the old arse Forrestal building across the street from the African heritage museum.

And to add, stop the government subsides for all the industries. If solar can produce energy at a competitive price then they can survive. Stop being a crutch that is taken advantage of

I don't see why the ATF and DEA can't be merged.

That’s the big issue. The left loves to complain about corporate greed, but their government remedy facilitates it. It’s not a private market when your biggest companies make billions off of taxpayer dollars and favorable regulations.

Interior should be in Salt Lake City near many National Parks.

FBI should be in St Louis or Kansas City.

FedGov should consist of these 4 departments ONLY

Defense - protect the borders
State - conduct diplomacy with other countries
Justice - adjudicate laws and mete out justice per the Constitution
Treasury - manage currency

No other functions are necessary.

You misspelled shut down. Especially the ATF. Alcohol and tobacco should be the responsibility of states. And what part of "shall not be infringed" does the F not understand?

Every single gun law on the books is unconstitutional. They are all an infringement. The only gun law I would support would be that the government REQUIRED every citizen to carry a firearm.
