What a big baby
shut it down PLEASE!
So called “shutting down the government” is another fake term: all the courts and law enforcement continue to operate, the military and intelligence agencies contiue to defend the US, social security checks continue to be cut – the only ones to shut down are the numerous parasitic alphabet bureaucratic agencies that don’t do anything good for society anyway. So unless you are a government contractor for something like EPA, you have nothing to worry about.
