OF COURSE the air traffic control system could have functioned effectively under the sequester if people at all levels pulled together and operated more efficiently. But the controllers didn't want people to know that the system could do with fewer controllers--and the FAA didn't want people to know that the system could operate effectively with less money. That is the basic nature of bureaucracy.
