Government Shutdown Day 1

After day 1 of the government shutdown 800,000 federal employees sit waiting to see what will happen , thinking about going without a paycheck.  While Democrats and Republicans of the House sit discussing a way to end the nation's latest fiscal crisis. President Obama called Republicans "reckless"  because it seems that the are willing to  break down the government in order to take down the law  of his health care coverage that was upheld be the Supreme court. It has been almost 18 years since the last time the government has shut down. This doesn't make sense because the Republicans would be stopping 15 percent of Americans that aren't covered with health care to be covered. I don't agree with republicans we shouldn't have to get rid of another act, just so you will agree to provide more health care for Americans. Everyone knows that Obamacare isn't  favored by the republican. Hopefully this doesn't last 21 days like the last shutdown.

  1. I agree that this issue has gotten out of control when the families of American workers are questioning their stability. I don't think this is a republican vs. democrat issue. I think that this is an issue of the government putting personal disagreements ahead of what's best for the people and that is unacceptable.
