Subject: public comment on federal register FW: we have ten other agencies working on this - shutu down this one -w astefgul use of tax dollars

since this agency has been funded for 21 years of this, it is clear that some information shuold have been gleaned that will enable some action based on 2l years of collectino of information. i see no action resulting. so this project is a total waste of time and money for us taxpayers. the justice dept works inthsi same area. taxpaeyrs do not need to be funding duplicate agencies to work on the same subject. i see no need to beat taxpayers over the head for this duplication. this agency has accomplished nothing in the 21 years they were funded to take this survey, so they want to do some more non effective work and study. i see no reason to reinstate this survey. this is another example of the wasteful use of this agency cdc. cdc needs a good cleanout to make it effective. right now it is a totally wasteful agency. this budget for this project shuodl be zero.
