Those sick fucks are gonna shut it down.

[hootinholler]

How much is the shutdown going to cost us?

I know of one program that will not yield money that is normally taken in. There will be no retroactive billing for it either because the machines it runs on haven't been updated in a timely fashion and the servers are maxed out simply keeping up with real time. There is no way we can stop for a period and then catch it up later. There is no capacity.

How many more revenue producing contracts are out there that will lose money? How much does the contingency planning cost us? How much does the restart cost us?

These teabagging fucks have no clue, but shutting this shit down is not going to save any money.

1. It will cost us a fair amount - both in direct government loss of revenue and in the ripple effect

on the markets.

2. A 2-year-old kid doesn't care what happens when it has a tantrum

and these 2-year-olds don't care either.

All they want to do is kick and scream and holler to get their own way.

3. yes, they are.

?..,

4. Why do Republicans hate America?

[Ilsa]

5. we need an investigation as to how much money they'll make

from shorting stocks, then rebuying them cheap after the market drops again.

I seriously believe that for some, it's a market control, market manipulation tactic. We just need to catch them and prosecute them for it.

8. Didn't they exempt themselves from insider trading rules? n/t

[Ilsa]

10. oh yeah, what's wrong with me, thinking

that the rules I must live by apply to those bastards?

Yeah, the game is rigged.

6. They're not concerned with saving money

It's all about being able to shout to the president "WE run this country, n****r!"

[abelenkpe]

7. They don't want to save money

Republicans want to crash the economy.

9. Watching C-Span comments via Twitter

is sickening. There are some stupid people that don't know what they are talking about.

11. Their brains are stuck on crazy-stupid.

They are obviously the party of hate. They will let thousands suffer, just because they cannot stand the skin color of the POTUS imo.
