Commentary "On March 1, the 'sequester' will take effect unless Congress averts it. Allegedly, it would 'cut' a mere $120 billion from the baseline federal budget -- about 3% -- each year for the next ten years. Being The State means you're allowed to engage in fraud. But most Americans understand that these aren't really cuts at all, but a slight lowering in the rate of spending increases." (02/07/13)
