The bill would enforce that spending limit by triggering automatic spending cuts when Congress fails to abide by the cap. The spending cap would then be slowly lowered year by year to achieve budget balance.

We tried automatic spending cuts for the past five or six years. Congress just repealed it. You expect them to enact even more stringent and larger automatic cuts?

I thought it sounded like deja vu all over again.
