It is our Congress's fault that we are dealing with sequestration. There is no one willing to bend and make a deal. Both parties are failures. Both have positives and negatives. Republicans will give us defense and militarily sound. Democrats will take care of the less fortunate. And we need a little of both. But what we need more than anything is a nation that isn't dependant on others. The first step of that is to come to an agreement and balance our budget. So until they can make some serious changes and meet in the middle, then no one in either house needs a paycheck. None of them are living paycheck to paycheck like most Americans. And when they do come to an agreement, we are not going to retroactively pay them what they missed out. That money will go to pay on the national debt.
