Wait. In one thread you want military spending cut and in this thread a cut in the projected increase (still a net increase) will add 1.5% to the UE rate.
The total cuts are less than $100 billion. You added $1 trillion in deficit spending and the UE rate increased.
I'm sorry if I don't believe any numbers I see out there - none make sense.

You think 8% unemployment is bad, but you are fine with the sequester pushing unemployment up to 9%?
Then start making Drama Obama act like a grown up and tell him to cut spending in a more reasonable manner.
All Obama wants is to increase taxes AGAIN and he does not care how he does it or who to. Just remember, the next time he may consider you rich. He is NOT going to stop.
But 8% unemployment for 4 years is just fine with him. What a joke.
Didn't he say he was going to veto any legislation that tried to stop sequestration? Now he did a flip flop and playing fear mongering. And worse yet there is the STUPIDITY among us that would love to crawl up his azz and will believe him.
Drama Obama at his finest.
People,... get this, YOU AINT GETTING ANY MORE FREE MONEY THAN YOU ALREADY GET. And if you are middle class, you aint getting any free money. You are the slaves that will continue supporting the democratic drones who think they are going to get more free stuff.
"This is what the president is saying is a massive and devastating spending "cut."" Rand Paul.
Listening to Obama, you would think there really would be spending cuts rather than a miniscule reduction in the spending increases. But to the worlds biggest spender, a slowing of the increase must be quite stressful.
The joker in the White House is saying a 1% cut will "add hundreds of thousands of Americans to the unemployment rolls. ... The unemployment rate might tick up again."
But 8% unemployment for 4 years is just fine with him. What a joke.
its not liberal at all....its more like an ole fashioned stern religion with commandments and fear

Did you say lies? His entrie presidency is one big lie. Here is yet another example......
If you want a thorough agency-by-agency rundown of the budget cuts sequestration would deliver, the Office of Management and Budget has you covered. In compliance with The Sequestration Transparency Act of 2012, the OMB sent a detailed report to Congress in September 2012. But there’s a small problem with the report: One of the cuts it warns against would affect an agency that no longer exists–and didn’t exist when the OMB sent its report to congress.
The first line item on page 121 of the OMB’s September 2012 report says that under sequestration the National Drug Intelligence Center would lose $2 million of its $20 million budget. While that’s slightly more than 8.2 percent (rounding error or scare tactic?), the bigger problem is that the National Drug Intelligence Centershuttered its doors on June 15, 2012–three months before the OMB issued its report to Congress.
