You don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone

Progressive talk show host Leslie Marshall and USW International Vice President of Human Affairs Fred Redmond discuss the effects of the sequester and how some Republican officials are reacting to cutbacks in their districts. They talked about the philosophy of smaller government and how some Republicans are acting as though the sequester has brought about hell and damnation.
 
It was amazing to hear the number of Republicans who felt their districts should be unscathed, said Redmond. So when they are talking about less government, obviously they are talking about less government for everybody except their constituents.
