Most other departments could be cut back dramatically and probably still perform more functions than what are truly sufficient.
Only 10?
How about we pick 10 from this list that can STAY?

I'm curious to know why you would eliminate FEMA.
8. TSA (why did it take me this long to think of something so obvious?)
Thought this could be fun.
Name 10 government departments or agencies that could be eliminated.
You are welcome to ad more to your list, 10 is just the base.
1: Administration on Aging (AoA)
2: Air Force
3: Weather Service
4: Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars
5: Small Business Administration (SBA)
6: Library of Congress
7: Holocaust Memorial Museum
8: Domestic Policy Council
9: Rural Development
10: Committee for Purchase from People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled
I would have to disagree with #5. The SBA is the primary means by which MOST small, start up businesses become successful or start at all. That's the foundation of our economy....or at least it should be.
Because it is 1., intrusive, 2., largely ineffective at the purpose for which it supposedly exists, and 3., is expensive. If it existed strictly as a smaller advise, train, and equip organization for locals (provided that it did not turn into a JBT school) my opinion MAY be different depending on how it seemed to square with the general welfare clause of the constitution which would be the only way to constitutionally justify its existence.
So small business owners didn't build their businesses?
No government agency will ever be done away with because there are enough people to support each and every one.
We already have private country clubs, why do we need a government counterpart?Why get rid of the Air Force?
