Congressional Conversations: McGovern On Obama's Budget

President Barack Obama's budget calls for a trillion dollars in new taxes on the wealthy, more government spending on the middle class, and an end to what the White House calls the "mindless austerity" of the sequestration.

Republicans dismissed it as dead on arrival.
