Marty Usher POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:San Antonio, Texas, United States Registered: Jun 2001 Admin Use	posted 05-16-2013 02:33 PM The Sequester has devistated the government/military sector of our company's business. The travel restrictions to conferences/training symposiums for all levels of government/military personnel has meant many conferecnces have been cancelled AND the government still has to pay huge cancellation fees to hotels, conventions centers and other suppliers that have already performed advance work. We have lossed millions of dollars of revenue projected just for 2013 and the lack of action on the Sequester will most likely mean there will be none scheduled for next year as well.

Sad to hear,,,,,but I would think this HOPE & CHANGE president and the Senate controlled by his party, would 'work with' all of Congress to reduce the deficit. BHO has had no intentions of working with those across the aisle to reduce federal spending,, or lowering the federal deficit. Cuts need to be made,,and more of them in the months ahead. I feel your pain, but let's realize what this president has done......spiraling federal spending out of control during his miserable administration's time, and his goal to keep it rolling like an avalanche down the mountain into bankruptcy. He said several years back for all of us to tighten our belts.. Has he ever tightened his? May God Help Us..

Ed I agree BUT, the cuts need to be well thought out, not just wholesale cuts with no regard for what is being cut. The Sequester was suppossed to be toooo bitter of a pill for either party to swallow but............... There is far, far too much wasteful spending, but wasteful cutting/spending reduction can also have unnecessary negative effects.
ed monahan POA Lifetime Site Supporter Prowler Junkie Personal ScrapBook From:Cincinnati, Oh, USA Registered: Jul 2000 Admin Use	posted 05-17-2013 04:07 PM I think the cuts are purposely made to inconvenience the public so that the public reacts quickly and then realizes that they are the ones being harmed. If they cut the bureaucrats no one would notice. That is why they cut the airport folks, immediate impact on the public. edited for a horrible spelling error This message has been edited by ed monahan on 05-17-2013 at 05:45 PM
