Here's a multiple choice question:
The federal government spends about $3.5 trillion each year. After sequestration occurs, the federal government will spend:1) Less2) The same amount3) MoreAll who answered number 3 are correct.In recent memory, the federal government has never cut spending, and it still hasn't. Spending will continue to increase -- just a little less with sequestration.The powers that be are purposefully choosing their words very carefully to deceive us. Sequestration amounts to a "decrease" in the "increase," not a cut.-- G. N. Smith, ArlingtonHave more to add? News tip? Tell us
