NO!, it is all staged theater by the whores in Washington. All cutbacks are specifically designed only to inconvenience Joe Q. Citizen, such as longer lines at the airport security, which in itself is just theater anyway.
And all of this will be forgotten by the next election time, and the same pimps and whores will again be re-elected as the memory of the average American is pathetically short.
Solution? Term limits, NO more career politicians at any level. 10 years tops, they go get a real job. No pension, no life long health care. They can invest in a 401k just like the rest of us.
