Our government is set to spend $3.5 trillion this year and we are
having a “budget crisis” over $85 billion in cuts and even if these cuts
were to be made, they would not be from existing programs. They will be
cut from money guaranteed to agencies. For example, if the Department
of Agriculture was supposed to receive five billion dollars, but only
received two billion, that would be considered a cut for the
sequester. So does the Obama administration want to make a big deal out
of this sequester? Because they have a created a country in which they
must keep them in a constant state of worry and fear. If they did not
the American people would be able to look into the sequester, and see
that it was not a big deal.
“The Sequester was Obama’s idea.” – Bob Woodward
What is the craziest part of the entire idea of the sequester is that
the president wants to blame republicans for the looming sequester.
However, the idea of the sequester originated from the White House. How
does the president keep his name out of it? Obama keeps campaigning for
his ideas and if he maintains to the public that the republicans are to
blame, then the media will back him and so will the American people.
However, they need to understand that they are being brainwashed into
becoming a part of the Obama tragedy. This tragedy is where the
government tries to legislate prosperity to those who are not as ‘lucky’
as those who have money. Then he passes laws into affect that lead the
people on to believe one thing, but then another happens. Must I remind
you about Obamacare? “This is not a tax,” Obama emphatically stated.
However, what did the Supreme Court rule? They ruled that Obamacare was a
tax and it did not do anything close to what they president wanted! We
now see that the program is under-funded. Now they are asking for money!
In this country we do not have an income problem, we have a spending
problem. While the president says that we need to tax the rich more and
make them pay their fair share, which would not solve the problem.
According to multiple sources, if the government were to tax the top two
percent of Americans at 100%, it would run the government for less than
a month. So, how is it that we cannot find somewhere to cut spending?
Why can’t we cut some of the president’s vacations? He seems content on
taking multiple trips on the taxpayer’s dime. I am not content with him
spending time golfing with Tiger Woods. He should be spending time in
the White House, not spending my money, but working on reducing the
debt.
Finally, how can he blame republicans? The senate has not passed a
budget since Obama has become president. Maybe the sequester is the kick
that Obama needs to make some compromise with republicans on the topic
of spending cuts.
