[cpaharley2008]

According to the inside scoop, National Parks like Yellowstone and Yosemite will be opening at least 2 weeks later as the National Parks shorten their season. Please check and verify any reservation you may have. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...parks/1935679/

Hi: cpaharley2008...Here in Canada it's called "Downloading". The Feds download onto the Provinces, who in turn download on to the Municipalities who in turn raise our property taxes to fund the services. Three levels of Gubermint one level of taxpayer.
Our parks have been doing with less for years and it shows!!!

The funny thing is that there are no actual cuts. Just a smaller (by 2%) increase in future spending.

My Mom used to advise..."Don't believe anything you hear, and only half what you see!"
And that was before the internet and photoshop!

Anyway you can still expect the "Pop goes the weasel" part.

They have been looking for the Sequestration in the Himalayas for years but never caught one yet. I think it is a White Big Foot.

Right on! Seriously it doesn't matter who is in charge, if there is money to be had it will be spent.

Get out of the way because when Sequestration kicks in the government worker comes alive and heads for the door.
