1. Research federal agencies and explain which one you feel is the most important one and why?
I would say the Department of Defense would be one of the most important federal agencies. If we did not have them we wouldnt have anyone to protect us or our country from the rest of the world. We would be vulnerable and another country would eventuallly take over. We need men and women to help protect our freedoms.
2. Which federal agency could be terminated with the least impact (if any) and why?
Honestly while looking at a list of the agencies some of them seemed to repeat themselves a little. I found a census bureau and a bureau of the census. The definitions were the same so im not sure why they need two of them. I also dont understand why they dont combine the fbi,cia,.etc. They mention in the book that they dont cooperate very well so if they just combined them into one wouldnt that help?
3. Are any new agencies needed? In other words, if you were president would you create new agencies? If so, in what area(s)?
There are so many different agencies I honestly dont even know if I could think of something else that they havent already come up with.

I completely agree with all your responses. The list that I reveiwed had a agency for eveything under the sun.
ReplyDeleteThe Department of Defense is one of the most important agency there is. It also consisted of several sub agencies that provide crucial roles fro National Secuirty.
Great response! I think the Department of Defense is extremely important and the country would probably go through terrible events if it wasn't around. I've also noticed that some of the agencies kind of repeat themselves, it's amazing how long the list of federal agencies is. I wouldn't be able to come up with a new agency, either! Basically every subject is covered and I think the government has done an excellent job with organizing them.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you about the Department of Defense!. Protection for our country is one of the most absolute important things and I completely overlooked this agency. I also felt as though many different issues had multiple agencies representing them. I chuckled a little on your comment towards the CIA and FBI. You’d think, with the common goal they share – protecting our country – they would MAKE themselves get along. It seems somewhat ridiculous to use that excuse. I agree that it seems almost impossible to come up with another agency. Perhaps we should separate other agencies and organizations that don’t get along? (just a mild joke)
ReplyDeleteI agree that the Department of Defense is an important agency. Our nations security and citizens well-being is very important. It was also hard for me to come up with a new agency. Everything seems to be covered more than once. Which I suppose is also the only way an agency could be terminated; by combining similar ones.
