Something else will just take its place as there IS a legitimate reason for a federal bureau to investigate strictly-federal crimes, and yes there ARE strictly-federal crimes (like interstate wire fraud) that no state can assert jurisdiction because of Constitutional precedent (the Commerce Clause in this case). It's basically the cost of government. You either get corruption or anarchy. Pick your poision.
