Eliminate redundancies and determine whether the Federal Government should be involved in each objective. Other Information:
Congress should tell Special Interests: You get just one lollipop -- Fifteen different federal agencies oversee food-safety
laws. More than 20 programs "help" the homeless. Eighty programs are for "economic development." These are some of the findings
of a new report from the Government Accounting Office which uncovers massive redundancy in the federal government. Congress
needs to tell the legions of Special Interests knocking on their doors for favors everyday that duplicate federal agencies
will not be tolerated. Struggling taxpayers, workers and businesses need that money. "You may have just one lollipop. Not
15. Not 20. Not 80. Just one." We want one-stop shopping. No more than one government program or agency per objective. But
this is just the first step. We still need to examine the one agency that remains for redundancy and waste. We also must determine
whether government belongs in this area at all. 99% of all problems are worse served by government than by the marketplace,
charities, churches, social groups, family and friends. Congressmen and women, especially those who call themselves Tea Party
