I am not saying to get rid of those programs. mearly useing them as a compairison to the EPa's budget. Also I cannot follow your math. If 1 trillion was collected, I have to ask what was the total amount of income from all people in the US, that way you know what total % they are paying in the first place, only then can you figure out how much you would be cutting.
