              Without an agreement, $85 billion in hated spending cuts begin Friday. The cuts are from the sequester, which Congress and President Barack Obama agreed to in hopes of making them want to stop them that it forces them to reach an alternative.  So what do you think many lawmakers did the day before the  cuts take effect?  Leave.  Before noon on Thursday, many lawmakers walked down the Capitol steps and into awaiting cars to leave Washington. Democrats criticized Republicans for not even staying for the cuts to start coming. Republicans then fought back telling off Democrats for not stepping up to do more.  They blamed each other but didn't do any work.  A few alternatives were proposed but they were all shot-down
         It doesn't look as though these cut would be very good.  I am seeing that things aren't looking up.  I don't believe that this was a smart idea.
