This is going to affect Connecticut’s defense industry big time...

Not just Electric Boat in CT but in Virginia's ship yards and here in Charleston SC where Force Protection is located. My Husband works for a company that is doing vehicle modifications for Army and Marine vehicles. The contract that he is working on runs out in Oct.

Everyone is scared because they see what's coming. Obama would rather let these cuts happen so that he can blame it on the Republicans and because he doesn't give a damn about the military in the first place.

Not to mention California, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Washington state (think Boeing). And that doesn’t even account for the impact on the supply chain and smaller distributors in many other states. I’ll be looking for my notice on November 1st. I’m a little older and am prepared if it happens but many of my coworkers are not. What ticks me off the most is hearing yesterday that domestic program spending+entitlements actually goes UP, even with sequestration. We need the adults back in charge, pronto.
