Sequestration will notbe good, but neither is eventual bankruptcy.

Something has to be done to curb these giveaways.
We cannot afford to continue with unlimited unemploymenr compensation, Social Security disability, paying off illega immigrants.

It has to stop.

The worst of the Sequestration is the criminal slashing of the military, but we have a CIC who has the full intent of placing us at the mercy of our enemies, and right now he has the Congress backing him up on it.

Don’t care anymore. Until the Mediocracy is destroyed, we will continue to hear Bambi’s lies and lose elections. We have seen it throughout history. The latest iteration is modeled after Venezuela with a hint of Nazi Germany.

DOD/Panetta are claiming that this will result in 800,000 'civilians' would lose their jobs.

The sequestration cuts, however, are to take place over 10 years, not just one year.

The whole rhetoric is based on scare tactics -- both from those for sequestration and those against.

10 year timeframe? Not really. Congress can/probably will increase funding long before the 10 year period expires. It is more of the ole Washington shell games, and both parties play the games.
