Finally the Democrats do something I can get behind

Shutting down the government is fantastic. I support this move 100%. Hopefully they have more spine than the GOP and keep it shutdown for the rest of the year.

If military personnel was still being paid, I could get behind a shut-down. Because you know what I always say, "the less govt does, the better we all are." But I know it takes a toll on our service men and women.

Deal breakers for me:

- military
- children's healthcare

You sound like a Republican.

Not the best timing with tax season coming up. I would have preferred to get my refund back before they shut down.

I’m a selfish bastard. We work directly with the government. If I can’t bill them, it makes it hard to pay my staff.

I'm in healthcare. They're obviously important to us, too. I was just jabbing you.

I know. I’m not taking it seriously. Living in the DC Metro area for a while and I’m used to this shit. Hopefully they re-open today. Each side is so close and just hamstrung over a couple small items.

It's my understanding the military was not affected.

They were. Congress however was not. Only reason it may not have affected them was because I believe they are paid on the first and fifteenth. But hey illegals before our military.

Wrong. Military had to report for duty and would not have been paid if the shutdown lasted to the next payday.

The fillibuster was a tactic used by racist to suppress and repress blacks before and after the Civil War, used by DEMs for hundreds of years to keep the black man down. Needs to be banned going forward...
