    Sequestration
    Originally a legal term referring generally to the act of valuable property being taken into custody by an agent of the court and locked away for safekeeping, usually to prevent the property from being disposed of or abused before a dispute over its ownership can be resolved. i always thought the government was the people. Those elected were merely representatives of the people. The government has no assets as such because the assets are really the property of the people. The money that is supposedly being taken from the government in reduced spending is In fact just being returned to its rightful owners. We should not be using the word sequestration, but should be using confiscation. The argument of the administration is in fact the same argument Marx made. Marx said the total GDP should be distributed based on his definition of needs, and not left up to the marketplace. Is this not what the administration is saying?
