    FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR TAXMONEY. PAY THOSE WHO WORK, AND STOP HANDING OUT MONEY TO THOSE WHO DON'T AND TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES.

    Border Patrol is the "bastard child" of DHS it seems.

    This 40% cut will decimate the Border Patrol the ability to protect our nation from drugs, criminals and terrorist who are looking to exploit these types of flaws to allow them unabated entry into the US. This will cripple any intelligence that the Border Patrol produces that other agencies rely upon. Criminal Organizations will be able to just look at their watches to know when they will be able to smuggle their contraband. This is a huge win to the cartels, and a huge loss to security of this nation.

    I do understand that we need to cut expenses, but I would like to know why are we getting cut 43% of our Salary? This is very brutal, and we do not know how we are going to survive on this market with such deductions.
