SNIP...Republicans are finding it's one thing to issue a blanket promise to cut spending, an entirely different matter when you actually take the scissors to $1 of every $6 spent by agencies like the IRS, the FBI, NASA and the National Park Service. Federal layoffs would be unavoidable, the White House warns.

It is time for the public sector to experience what the private sector has been experiencing since 0 took over.

The FBI, IRS and other like agencies will never suffer loss of money.

Not making the cuts will effect billions.

They won’t affect me much because I’m not a dependent slave.

It’s not right that the miserable, greedy, thieving taxpayer lay off it’s hard working government officials.

It’s easy to say that ‘X’ number of Americans will be adversely affected by the cuts. What they fail to mention though, is that “ALL” Americans will be adversely impacted if they don’t make the cuts.
We can have a little pain over a longer period with light at the end of the tunnel or a total disaster with long-term effects. It’s like the old oil-filter commercial, ‘Pay now or pay later.’

"Federal layoffs would be unavoidable, the White House warns." Yes, this would be the plan.
When a business needs to cut expenditures usually layoffs are one of the main ways they do so.
Why should the Gub'Ment be any different.
Its time to cut away the dead weight.
