The government is scheduled to go up by x percent every year because we haven't passed a budget in 4 years. Now this is not going to go up as much per the graph and everyone is freaking out. I call bullshite.

If the admin wants to change the allocations of cuts bring it on, but Obama is only interested in growing government, he could give a rats ass who he furloughs to get it.
