CONGRESS ANOTHER CRISIS, ANOTHER FAILURE...
Quote "The Super Committee's"
failure to perform is not a surprise most Americans never expected then to do
their job, Americans have come to expect them to be a no do nothing group of
elected representatives.
·
If
Moses had operated through committees the Israelites never would have got
across the Red Sea.
· A committee is a
group that keeps the minutes and loses hours.
· A committee was
formed not to find a solution but to protect the Congress.
Members
of the "super committee" charged with coming up with $1.2 trillion in
budget cuts are focused on how to announce failure to reach a deal, Democratic
and Republican aides confirmed to CNN Sunday. NEVER DID THEY INTEND TO REACH AN AGREEMENT.
RAISING YOUR TAXES IS THE BOTTOM LINE.
There was a pervasive
feeling throughout the country that they would not find a solution.
That the committee
was formed to appease the masses into believing that Medicare and military
spending would be saved.
While
aides said no final decision had been made, they acknowledged that barring an
unforeseen development, an announcement of no deal is likely.
Talks
on trying to reach a deficit reduction agreement are essentially over and
discussions are focused on a Monday announcement, a senior Democratic aide
said. Rick Perry
is correct their pay needs to be cut in half or less until they can do the job
they were voted to do.
To
stave off automatic spending cuts known as a sequester, the super committee was
tasked with proposing ways to reduce deficits by at least $1.2 trillion over 10
years. At least seven of its 12 members would have to approve a plan in order
to send it to the House and Senate in the form of legislation. You did notice
those most affected are seniors and our national security. Never does Congress
talk about cutting foreign aid and infrastructure building in foreign
countries. Always punish the US Citizen.
Then,
both chambers would vote on the bill without amendment by December 23. For the
plan to pass, a simple majority in each chamber would have to vote in favor.
Failure
to pass any agreement could result in $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts
across much of the federal budget starting in 2013, evenly divided between
defense and nondefense spending. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta warned Congress
this week that such cuts could cripple the American military establishment. WITH EACH PARTY
BLAMING THE OTHER AND NEITHER FOR TAKING RESPONSIBILITY.
Since
Congress made the law governing the sequester, it can also amend or repeal it,
as some lawmakers are suggesting. Like many of the laws Congress makes un Constitutional.
