EDITOR:
Harry Reid doesn't want to change Social Security because he, Pelosi, Obama and the other Democrats are using it as their cash cow while destroying its purpose.
The Department of Energy's sole charge is to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. They have become a huge multibillion dollar per year agency which has done nothing to reduce our dependency on foreign oil. Why should we keep throwing our money down a black hole without results? Dump the Department of Energy as a do-nothing huge waste of money.
The Department of Education continues spend billions to issue unfunded requirements onto our schools. Why should we accept their unfunded mandates that have proven to do nothing to improve education? Dump the Department of Education as a waste of our hard earned taxpayer money and return education to local control.
The Democrats just created another huge bureaucracy to issue thousands of regulations to control banks. Are Reid and his gang trying to solve the high unemployment by government hiring? We need to dump Reid and his cohorts ASAP.
Having traveled extensively behind the Iron Curtain before it fell, let me tell you socialism does not work.
