I looked but couldn't find any fucks to give. It's a dog and pony show to make the masses feel better about their elected representatives. I am currently on the last few episodes of Justified so I really don't care.  Is the last season on amazon prime now?

| If you know anything about government funding you know not passing a budget doesn't affect food stamps. It's part of the automatic budget. The only budgets that need passing are the government agencies: DOD, DOJ, State, etc etc. Don't freak the FSA out they will still get their free shit |

Food Stamp recipients Gov Employees Gov Contractors Other moochers How is it screwing up your plans? the only way it is screwing with my plans is that it is getting my hopes up. far too much of the fed gov is "mandatory" I'd like a real shutdown where they go home and never come back. Highly doubtful we would miss 99% of it. Which is why they fight it so hard. They KNOW they are not needed and the people ans states will get along just fine with out them. |

OP, are you implying .gov employees are moochers?  Maybe, like I said, I am a gov contractor 
The one area that bothers me during the shutdowns is the military, active, retired, and veteran benefit students, they should never be affected. Heck, I don't have a lot of money in savings, so I will feel the squeeze real quick. |

The fucking government shuts down every week at 5:00 pm. All non essential people go home. This idea that somehow the sky will fall is a story created by the DC establishment, with the help of a complicit media.
Shut it the fuck down for sanity of the taxpayer. |
