    There are so many other ways to effectively cut costs without crippling the nation's security along with that of the families of those who serve to protect it. Start with our congress men and women's salaries.

    I'm sickened to see our brave BP agents used as political pawns--while billions of our tax dollars are literally wasted on nonsense programs, research funds and foreign aid. You hypocrites can start by cutting congressional and executive branch pay, benefits, perks, trips, parties, and other extravagance. Stop this NOW!

    This is an outrage. How can you take 38-40%? This will effect peoples everyday living, including mortages.

    I believe that restructuring of the welfare programs would be a better way to eliminate unnecessary spending.

    I wouldnt mind a shared sacrifice by all Gov't employees for the good of our country. However, I beleive it should be our elected Representatives that need to lead by example and not make those who are already under work and financial strain be the sacrificial lambs. 40% cut is unbelievable!!

    Please prevent sequestration to the Border Patrol. it means A LOT more than a furlough. Border Patrol Agents will have a 30% pay cut also.
