That government is best which governs least.

+1, just think of all the extra money that we should be saving ! Unfortunately I am sure that the members of congress continue to take their paychecks. Let them sign up for unemployment due to layoff like the rest of the US would have to do during a shutdown or lockout

I saw an article suggesting that many Democrat congress people are taking the opportunity to have vacations in Puerto Rico, funded by D.C. lobbying companies...so odd to get to where they don't even have to be discreet.

Exactly what I have been thinking! It took me weeks to realise that the shutdown was even happening.

The government shut down Dec. 21 over Senator Chuck Schumer and Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi petulantly not wanting Trump to have any border wall funding.

Actually, according to Trump, it is Trump who has "shut down the government for border security". Quote taken from Wikipedia with verified source at https://www.politico.com/story/2018/12/11/trump-border-wall-congress-budget-1055433. I don't know why people on both sides keep insisting that Trump is not taking responsibility for this.

Does anyone get the feeling that the Uniparty has been bought off by the elites?
