What If Sequestration Was Up To US.

Just imagine for several minutes if what our United States Congress just walked away from without doing anything worthy of what could be called a real effort that is unless you call obstructionism and taking the week before the deadline and a long weekend off is doing something constructive for the people.

This failure to act and resolve this issues regardless of your political views has reveled that our elected Representative in the other Washington are not working in our best interest otherwise like fiscal cliff we faced in December our politicians would not be waiting till the last minute to find a half baked solution.

So what if we could draft up a list of cuts and put them in the order they would be cut here is what I would start with.

2. Excellent!! I had some of the same thoughts

I wonder, are congresscritters supplied with cellphones, laptops, any mobile devices? Also, any transporation costs such as limo service, etc., should be cut out, they need to take a cab or train and they pay out of their own pocket for that! Do they get free lunches and dinners? Cut those too. I wish you could cut the crap out of their salaries, but I've heard that their salaries are "guaranteed"...must be nice! I like your ideas, especially the free health insurance!! Let them pay on their own!

They, along with the Supreme Court Justices, should be the first ones to feel the pain! The only place I wouldn't cut is the Secret Service; that would be too dangerous.
