(37 posts)I'm currently living paycheck to paycheck too. Along with that wonderful Student Loan payment every month until infinity. The Republicans are playing a dangerous game with people's lives because they are having an inferiority complex issue. I don't like it but if they keep this up after the 17th, I think it is time to seriously consider labeling them traitors to the state. They are going to harm the country because they disagree with a health care program that is already LAW. There is nothing to negotiate, it is the law. I think they need to look in the mirror and take a step back. If their actions start affecting world markets it may be time to arrest them and let them thing about it prison.
I would be totally fine with a government shut down if it didn't last long or wasn't this close to the debt ceiling. All this bickering back and forth with the President just makes them look like little children. Well, the moment it starts to bother Wall Street or people who shop at Wal-Mart, I'm expecting them to change their tune.
