1.      Research federal agencies and explain which one you feel is the most important one and why?

In my opinion, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is one of the most important federal agencies among us today. The United States Environmental Protection Agency is an agency of the U.S. federal government which was created for the purpose of protecting human health and the environment by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA deals with issues of concern to the environment or public safety. The environment is the most important assets of this world.

2.      Which federal agency could be terminated with the least impact (if any) and why?

In my perspective the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) has back fired and needs to be abolished. We need to start worrying about ourselves and put the United States America first.The MCC was created to provide international assistance to some of the poorest countries in the world. Since 2004, MCC has been creating partnerships with impoverished countries, but only with those countries “committed to good governance, economic freedom, and investments in their citizens.”
Some of these partners are countries like Jordan to which we pledged $275 million more to in October 2010, and Morocco, which got a 5-year, $700 million deal in 2007 all via the MCC. Both of these countries have recently seen protests due to the human rights and economic abuses of their leader. Good investment strategy.

3.      Are any new agencies needed? In other words, if you were president would you create new agencies? If so, in what area(s)?

I think there is way too many at this point in time. Everything we could think of is regulated in some sort of way. If I were president I would slack down on federal agencies that have less needed roles such as the ATF or Indian Affairs.
