Effects of the Shutdown

      As the government shutdown finally draws to a close we can take the time to see in how many ways the shutdown affected our every day way of life. Sure, it shouldn't really affect us normal citizens as much as one would think. The government shutting down seems like much more of a big deal than it actually really is; however, there are certain aspects of life that a lack of a government most definitely affects. One of the obvious results is that national parks shut down, which has had a large effect on foreigners vacationing and weddings in the Capitol, you know, important things. The Federal Drug and Food administration was not working either, meaning that everything from eggs to fresh berries were not checked for dangerous bacteria or diseases. The Equal Employment opportunity commission was not in commission to offer aid to those suffering from discriminatio from their racist bosses. Furthermore, such cites as the u.S. census bureau and NASA maps were down as as they were parts of the shutdown government.
     Basically, these government aids that have been shutdown for the past couple of weeks will be back online. For those in need of Federal aid this is an extremely positive motion. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/18/government-shutdown-cost_n_4121906.html
