How does Sequestration work with out Congress passing a 2013 federal budget ?
The Congress has been abdicating their authority and functioning outside the US Constitution for so long it doesn't appear to matter that before sequestration can occur there first needs to be a budget PASSED -- not proposed, not intended, not voted on, not talked about, not thought about, not whined about - but passed.
But the best thing that could happen to America is that Congress does not extend the government spending ceiling and thereby effectively shutting down the government.

I don't see it happening at least with passing a budget. The US Senate under Harry Reid hasn't passed a budget in 4 years. Moody's has stated that they are about to downgrade our credit rating if Congress doesn't get off its ass. The only way for that to happen is to turn the Senate out and change it.
