Subject: PUBLIC COMMENT ON FEDERAL REGISTER BELOW - OR HOW GOVT JUST GROWS LIKE
TOPSY - OUT OF CONTROL FW: taxpayers are already paying for l5 other agriculture advisory
committees - we are sick and tired of all these duplicates
THE TAXPAYERS ARE ALREDY PAYING TAXES TO SUPPORT 15 OTHER AGRICULTURAL ADVISORY
COMMITTEES. WHAT HAVE YOU DECIDED TO SHUT DOWN SO THAT YOU HAVE TAX DOLLARS TO RUN
THIS NEW GROUP YOU WANT TO FORM. NO WONDER GOVT IS GROWING LIKE TOPSY FAR FAR ABOVE
THE ABILITY OF TAXPAYERS TO EVER SUPPORT IT. HOW DID YOUI GET ALONG WITHOUT THIS
AGENCY FOR 200 YEARS. I SEE NO JUSITIRICATION AT ALL FOR THE SPENDING HERE. AND I AM SICK
AND TIRED OF GOVT GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER AND BIGGER EVERY SINGLE YEAR, WITH NO
CONSIDERATION FOR BLEEDING TAXPAYERS TO RUN IT.
THIS IS SIMPLY OUT OF CONTROL. THE BUDGET FOR THIS NEW COMMITTEE SHOULD BE ZERO. YOU
SHOULD BE FIRING IN OTHER AREAS SO THAT YOUR SIZE STAYS THE SAME.IN FACT IT IS TIME TO
DOWNSIZE GOVT, NOT KEEP ENLARGING IT AND ENLARING IT AND ENLARGING IT. THIS IS
COMLETELY OUT OFCONTROL. T HIS COMMENT IS FOR THE PUBLIC RECORD. JEAN PUBLIC
