As the amount of time before the sequester decreases, the talk of spending cuts has been the center of attention for many heated political and economic debates. Although spending cuts seems to be the most logical and popular way to get the country's debt under control, Americans cannot decide which programs should be cut or reduced. In recent Pew Research Center Poll conducted in February 2013, the category that received the most votes for decreasing was the "aid to the worlds needy" coming in with 48% of the voters agreeing with reducing it. However, the other 18 categories did not receive nearly the amount of support as would have hoped to give law makers a key understanding of what the people want.
