Who would head the Department of Education? My wife, Elizabeth. She would dismantle that bureaucracy so fast it would make your head spin.
Department of Agriculture? Rep. Ron Paul of Texas would get the honors. His mission would be abolishing the agency as fast as possible and saving the taxpayers billions.
Department of Commerce? Harry Browne could destroy this one for me.
Department of Energy? Howard Phillips would have the mandate to eliminate this bureaucracy within the first 100 days.
Department of Health and Human Services? We'd close this one down without ever dignifying the agency with a secretary.
Department of Housing and Urban Development? Ditto this monstrosity.
Department of the Interior? I'd bring back James Watt to begin a fire sale on all federal land.
Department of Labor? Pat Buchanan. After all, he deserves an appointment for coming up with that great laugh line.
Department of Transportation? Privatize, my boy. Privatize.
Department of Veterans Affairs? Col. David Hackworth. And I would hope he would hack it.
Department of the Treasury? Anyone who would help me abolish the Internal Revenue Service, the Federal Reserve and bring back the gold standard. Any suggestions?
Anyway, that's a little piece of it. While those appointments were being confirmed, I'd be busy bringing all our troops home from overseas (with the possible exception of South Korea, for the time being), abolishing foreign aid of any kind and begin giving weekly fireside chats to the nation about self-governance, the importance of freedom and the glories of personal responsibility.
