And the counter to this? Worlds of Fun won't be effected by the government shenanigans. Moral of the story? The federal government shouldn't be involved in running museums, parks out anything else that functions just fine as a business or a non-profit. The Truman House is run by the National Parks people. I can't think of anything more foolish.
ReplyDeleteOh NO!
ReplyDeleteI guess we'll all be opening a vein and ending it all now!
“The worst-case scenario for us,” a leading anti-budget-cuts lobbyist told The Post, “is the sequester hits and nothing bad really happens.”
ReplyDeleteThink about that. Worst case? That a government drowning in debt should cut back by 2.2 percent — and the country survives. That a government now borrowing 35 cents of every dollar it spends reduces that borrowing by two cents “and nothing bad really happens.” Oh, the humanity!
Go read the rest.
Obama is playing the smoke-and-mirrors game, and the ingnorant sheep are expected to fall for it.
A normal citizen might think this a good thing. For reactionary liberalism, however, whatever sum our ever-inflating government happens to spend today (now double what Bill Clinton spent in his last year) is the Platonic ideal — the reduction of which, however minuscule, is a national calamity.
Or damn well should be. Otherwise, people might get the idea that we can shrink government and live on.
Obama is.....a stupid nigger.
ReplyDeleteObama is...Evil.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pitty that all those park rangers, with absolutely nothing to do except give a tour once every 8 or nine hours, might actually have to sleep on their time. Woe is me!
ReplyDeleteConservatives are so damn stupid.
ReplyDeleteWish sequesters could cancel meaningless extra tv newscasts. Guess they're cheaper to staff than M*A*S*H, Wheel of Fortune, and Alex Trebeck? All the good re-runs are on cable! So lets watch another half hour of Brian Buzby!
ReplyDeletePractically every American has had to make do with less. Now the Government is facing a 2% budget "cut" (still more than we spent last year) and they're laying everyone off and closing everything down. Good thing The Government doesn't run health care...
ReplyDeleteagreed!
ReplyDeleteDamn I'm gonna miss standing in lines....
