What would minimum Federal Government Look like?

In his blog on Huffington post Robert Reich pointed out that Rick Perry’s desire to minimize the Federal Government would save the Blue States from the Red states.  As most Blue states are donor states.

I thought what a minimum Federal Government would look like. Here are some possible outcomes:

1.    No Department of Education

2.    No Department of Transportation

3.    No Department of Health and Human Services (including Social Security and Medicare)

4.    No Labor Department

5.    No Agriculture Department (no Farm Subsidies)

6.    No Energy Department

7.    A scaled back Justice Department

8.    A scaled back Commerce Department

The functions performed by these departments would have to be picked up by the states.  This would be difficult in all states.  State taxes would have to be raised to cover the losses of Federal funds.  This would most likely in a net tax reduction in donor states like California but result in huge state tax increases in recipient states. 

I wonder how that would go over with the right wing supporters of Mr. Perry?
