Being without an elected govt (the civil service continues, obviously) is very different from shutting down the federal civil service.
I'm pretty sure Barry and Dems will come out of a shutdown much better than the Hate/Destroy-Govt Repugs, just like 1995.
I love working without being paid! Hurray!
On a more serious note, some young soldiers are really going to be screwed if we don't get a paycheck on the 15th.
I'm surprised Obama didn't just capitulate to the GOP some more. Its about fucking time he showed he had a nutsack.
"the military doesn't do anything useful or helpful around the world"
The military does what the MIC pays the politicians to order the military around:
Unending, murderous disasters for the military, for the countries the military invades and occupies, and for Human-Americans.
Nah, they're just sucking on the govt teat.

I love it as well. It is my favorite show of all time behind Lost. We own all seasons as well.
You have to watch Lost from Season 1 Ep 1. Period. There is no other way. Just watching season 1 is worth it (srs). After that it falls from EPIC status.
It's funny how Dems are making a big deal out of this. As if pain can be taken completely out of the equation when you have had pleasure from the system for so long. Your politicians will still have the power and the money. They really don't care if soldiers' paychecks will be held for a couple months. Look on the bright side military, social security checks will continue to flow. However, if you filed your taxes through USPS, the return may take longer than usual.
:lol Hold back the military's paychecks for a couple of months and there WILL be anarchy...
It is not only the military that are critical to the nation's security. Civil Service personnel in all the alphabet-soup agencies (FBI, CIA, NSA, etc.) will not even be paid half-wages, even if they are considered 'essential' personnel and thus have to keep working just without getting paid. Isn't that called slavery?
Patriots these workers are...but how much do you expect them to take? Why wouldn't they take their skills and education and go to the private sector where, if they get laid off, at least they don't have to keep working for no money?!
