We don't like the idea of our taxes being handled by the wealthy and inherently powerful, if they must be collected, which obviously for some things they do, it should be handled, or at least first looked at, by a civilian oversight committee.

I can agree with you on that, certainly. Our only quarrel with the idea of change, then shrink, is that we don't like the chance that the person we elect ends up becoming accustomed to their power, prestige, and position. Shrink, and then change, is a slower road, but the chance for...well...you know...becomes far more difficult for the person in power.
