"We will cut the size and cost of government by making every program and agency justify its existence and eliminate those that don't work."

This guy must be a complete moron.  All the stuff he said in that sentence is a direct consequence of laws that were written by the House/Senate and signed by the President.  It's a compliance issue, the governmental agencies are the ones charged with enforcement of those laws.  That in itself is the justification.  Well, I guess we could ignore all those pesky laws we don't like.
