But if Congress doesn...No it's not Armageddon. But if Congress doesn't get sane about what exactly *needs* to be cut, instead of just kicking the can down the road again, for me personally it will mean $300 less per month in family income, as my husband is a Federal employee and will be put on furlough one day per pay period starting in May. (And Congress... the furloughs don't affect them...) How is that really going to help the economy and reduce the deficit?<br /><br />I don't want to get into a political argument with anyone.
