The only necessary entities within the federal executive branch are the Department of State, and Defense.
Every other entity that doesn't involve our defense and foreign relations should be controlled by the individual states with congressional oversight.
U.S. Code not dealing with defense, foreign affairs, and commerce should be turned over to the states and they can decide if they want to enforce them or not.
This is in line with the tenth amendment
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Repeal Income Tax
Abolish the IRS.
Have each state adopt a sales tax.
Have each state give a portion of their tax earnings to congress. The amount would be dependent on the revenue of each state.
housing would be exempt
farmed food would be exempt (meats, dairy, grain, fruit, vegetable), primary housing would be exempt

Or better yet
adopt voluntary funding.
Each person donates funds to specific government programs.
The problem with taxation is it is money taken by coercion.
Taxes should be taken by explicit consent.
Each person should have a direct say in where their money goes.
Even if I agree to taxation, I may not agree to what my money is being used for

Marriage
Marriage should be left to the religious (or non-religious) institutions. Marriage should not be recognized by the State. Married people should not receive any special legal rights or privileges.
Marriage as a civil institution should be replaced by Family contracts. Contracts in which the participants are seen as immediate family members; and, are allowed whatever rights and privileges inherent in that title. That includes declaring a person to be a dependent of another.
I have no problem with marriage in it's basic form. An institution among people that says "We are joining families and we are creating a family."
The only good reason to get married is to have children.
And most people in bad marriages never should have been married to begin with.
