When Budget Cuts Hurt Congress, versus When Budget Cuts Hurt The Rest Of Us
http://bluntandcranky.wordpress.com/2013/04/26/when-budget-cuts-hurt-congress-versus-when-budget-cuts-hurt-the-rest-of-us/Snip: "When kids got booted out of Head Start, Congress did nothing about the Sequester. When little old ladies had their dinners taken away, Congress did nothing about the Sequester. It did not hurt them, after all.
Now that the FAA had to cut staffing levels in compliance with the Sequestration law that Congress passed, and flights are being delayed, Congress suddenly is doing something about the Sequester. Because they are being hurt by it."
