We've seen the play enough time not to care.
We all complain that govt is too big, so is it bad that it's closed?
Knowledge is the enemy of fear
75% of it's still open right? I understood only "non-essential" services are shutdown and the Federal Gov't claims 3/4 of what they do is essential. Correct me if I'm mistaken.
The "other 25%" will receive full back-pay and all accrued benefits when things are worked out so the net loss is to taxpayers as always. A few days off with full pay and benefits is one of the perks of being a non-essential Federal employee!
Actually, New York City is paying to keep Statue open. What's a few more dollars in debt to them?
I heard one time they tried to barricade off the WWII memorial and the vets that had traveled there just went through anyway. I like that they went in anyway!
You have Trump on one side and Pelosi on the other. What do you expect?

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
That was the Obamacare shutdown. Don't need one now.
The back pay is not automatic for much of the non-essentials.... however, congress always votes to give it to them...Cheers, RickO
