When the dismantlists talk about "trimming the fat" or "bloated" whatever relating to the federal government, remind them that there have been about the same number of federal employees since the 1960s.
Meanwhile US population has increased by ~70% and GDP has increased 29-fold.

If only
there was a poem
to warn people
that if they fail
to speak out
when others are threatened
eventually they will find
that there is no one left
to speak out for them.

If only
there was such a poem.

If only.

It would be easier
were this truly
the end of the world,
for in that case
you would be free
to do nothing.

But this is not
the end of the world,
just the end of the world
as you knew it,
and so in this case
you are obligated
to do something.

remember, the blitzkrieg is intended to make you feel like there is nothing you can do about it; that’s the only reason to go forward in this haphazard and sloppy manner all in the first week

and the choice of that strategy tells you they are afraid you *will* do something about it
