    They are a source of revenue procurement.

    What do you think?

    The government shutdown is just show. The furloughed government workers still have their job, benefits, vacation, paid days off, etc. Other American citizens won't even know it happened. Just a scare tactic used by politicians to scare the uninformed.

    Be happy about the shutdown. They can't screw anything up for a little while.

    I wish that were true. You would think Congress would be classified as "non-essential" if anybody is but no, they are still getting paid. I think we can live without the baby panda cam for a few weeks.
