I wholly disagree that it is necessary to cut the federal government for the sake of making it smaller. This is a large organization that employs many people that do good work for us. Bill Clinton streamlined this already, BTW, when there WAS a lot of nonsense going on. I haven’t yet met a government worker who sits around and twiddles their thumbs. How is this different than infrastructure work that got us out of the depression in the 1930s? All these frickin republicans/billionaires can talk about is cutting the federal government. It’s tiresome and certainly NOT innovative. It’s part of how we keep people employed and keep the country running. There is nothing nefarious about having a government that we pay to work for us, and it’s not a get rich scheme for these people. How about cutting some of these crazy federal contracts, instead? That’s where the money leaks out in the billions. We need an attitude adjustment on this.

Wish all Americans knew about Cost Plus Drugs. I remember when GWar Bush, raised the cost of the meds for Diabetes to $1,000! People that lived in states near Canada, would hire a bus to go to Canada and buy the meds for Diabetes for $30
