Woooo!
What you guys wanna do first??? Go out naked? Litter? Swim in a fountain?? Anyways, talking seriously, I honestly have no words. Just "WELL! Whatcha gonna do! Back to doing whatever I was doing". I didn't expect this, though. I thought we wouldn't have come to this. Even if it was mention as a possibility. Poor guys that are not going to be paid and all that. |

aside from a lot not being paid it's really not a big deal
http://www.washingtonpost.com/...down-will-work/ there have been 17 different government shutdowns since '76 sure goes to show how ass-backwards their priorities are considering they were just preparing to go to war with syria |

This isn't the big issue. The real problem is that, as a country, we're about to default on our loans if the government can't get its act together. <.<

The United States has a lot of problems but we are still better off than a lot of countries too. It really depends on your political preferences and what languages you can speak I guess. Putting it VERY simply.
