The sequestration might be a broadsword solution to our budget woes, but the method of its enablement might be serendipitous under the context of partisan politics. For better understanding let me present to you an example, if you will. Let’s say you have a conservative congressman who was voted into office and backed by lobbyists who line his pockets because his position, as a patriot, was to ensure defense spending was never cut. Not only does he personally believe this, but he is also obligated to represent his districts voice throughout his tenure. Well… in this case, there is also a diametrical opposite on the other side of the column that is just as obligated to ensure defense spending IS cut. So these sides will butt heads and never change their voice because they won
...
’t get reelected or get 1st class lobbyist treatment. So, yes the sequestration is an UGLY solution, but the beauty of the sequestration is that the congressmen can still maintain their constituents throughout its enablement … without a single – thought – of - compromise.
