Sequestration was suppose to be a poison pill

and get everyone to agree to a budget.

That worked out well, huh?

Dems have been made the fool. You cannot reason with these people hell bent on forcing an ideology on a majority of Americans who want nothing of it.

This is what appeasement brings. More demands from the nutsos who have a few hands on the levers of power, thanks to a Republican Party who welcomed these creepy asses with open arms to win elections. And thanks to Dems who gave these crazy persons and their ideas a platform that in any way made them and their ideas seem a reasonable compromise.

3. It was a poison pill

It's just taking a little longer (British understatement) than expected to make its adverse effects visible to the willfully blind.

It is actually just another stage in the poisonous plan of the 1% to protect themselves at all costs. What even they have failed to recognize is that when all of the poor are dead of starvation, there won't be anyone to supply the 1%'s basic needs any longer. There isn't a freezer big enough in the world to hold their 50 years worth of groceries without anyone to farm them, pick them or distribute them. It might take a few more weeks, but they will starve too. They will have the benefit of knowing it was their fault.
