The real problem came into being with the passage of the 17th amendment. <br /><br />The founding fathers intended to have a balance of power, so the House was to represent the people and were directly elected by the people. The Senate were to represent the interests of the states, therefore were chosen by the states to be their ambassadors to the central government. <br /><br />None of this would be occurring if the 17th amendment hadn't destroyed the balance of power. Repeal the 16th and 17th amendments and everything will start to fall back into place and decentralize the power garnered by the federal government, judges will be thwarted, bureaucracies will be held in check, if not eliminated. If that happened I wouldn’t be surprised to see the elimination of the Commerce, Education, Energy, Housing and Development, Homeland Security, Health and Human Services, Labor, Interior, Transportation and Veteran’s Affairs. Veteran’s could be an agency of Defense. The EPA and Wildlife services under Interior could be transferred to Agriculture, and then all three of them should be slowly dismantled and their responsibilities turned over to the states.

Now don't take me wrong, they were great men and visionaries beyond compare, but when there were no TERM LIMITS set for Senators, Congressmen and Federal judges, that was a total lapse in judgment..
