Sequester hasn't happened yet, and in any case it was Boehner's idea.

I think if you asked Americans if they could have the same wage:price, wage:insurance, and wage:home price ratios (plus national debt) that existed during the Carter years they would go for it in a heartbeat. Fuck Reagan and the horse he rode in on.
