There needs to be culling, but not the cows, if you know what I mean.

A Great Purge, a real "draining of the swamp," needs to happen (and pronto). But the swamp is a lot more than just politicians and bureaucrats in Washington, D.C.

Don't drain it! Just build a 50 foot wall around the DC swamp and don't let the swamp creatures out! They will then devour each other!

I guess it's possible to "drain the swamp." I just note that in the history of the United States, this has never happened before. I don't even know if most people would want this to happen. Most citizens would be terrified if a President or Congress said, "Okay, we're going to abolish this government agency."

I don't think people care about most government agencies. They care about friends, family and they themselves losing a job for an agency that they work for.

Why would getting rid of the Department of Education, say, be terrifying?

Bull's eye!

The Department of Education systematically abuses children and young people, physically, mentally, morally, emotionally and spiritually, in detention centres and concentration camps - schools and universities - institutes for indoctrination of young people in the propaganda of the system.

Why on earth would we want to get rid of the Department of Education (Indoctrination)?

How would we get on without our Nanny (goat) State child care (abuse) centres?

Besides we, our family members, friends and associates all need our jobs.

This is not about child care or education!

This is about survival!

We need our jobs to survive!

Children and young people are expendable!

Unavoidable collateral damage!

Sound familiar?

It would be characterized as "anti-education" or "hurting the children." I know this doesn't make sense - and "education" was far better before we had a U.S. Dept. of Education - but "the narrative" is all that matters.

I wish one president (and one Congress) would abolish just one department of government ... just to prove the sky won't fall when this happens.

Start with the universities, that's where all the bastards come from. A big freeze on grants, if you can't wipe your own face, too bad.

I'm sure you mean "needs".

Had you not recommended that I may have felt compelled to do such ;-)
