If there is a government shutdown, most people won't even know it happened.

Promises/threats, promises/threats, promises/threats -- and the beat goes on and on and on....... It's more of the same. When it becomes something true and actually different, call me, I'll be in the barn.

Unfortunately, the wrong parts of the government get shut down. If Congress got a 3% pay cut for every day it was shutdown it would never shut down. Instead, the military has to keep working and not get paid.

Yes I know many live check to check no matter how much they make.

Instead, the military has to keep working and not get paid. The very first people that should not not receive a paycheck should be the President, VP, Congress and Senate. A lot of the enlisted and their families are on government assistance because the pay is so rotten, and they are the ones risking their lives. It's not right!

I hope, if Trump is elected, he'll keep a list of those people declared non-essential, and fire them his first day in office.
Congress is always going through this routine every time the budget, which we don't have, is up for approval. Does anyone really believe this Kabuki theater is anything but election year "hey, look at me, I'm a fiscal conservative" donation gathering farce?
I can count on two hands Congress critter who are worth spit, with fingers left. The rest consider us no more than chumps that only count a month before and a month after election "day".

True, Biden may have tallied 81 million votes, but not from 81 million voters.

Only in bureaucratize can they reduce an increase and call it a cut.
I noticed "military construction", but not "military". They sure have our best interest at heart.
