So it looks like we are, once again, nearing a government shutdown.

Democrats are demanding removal of changes Republicans passed that would eliminate healthcare through Medicaid and ACA for about 10 million Americans. Republicans are pissed about this and are blaming Dems for a potential shutdown.

I'll also leave this:




Thoughts?

Agree with trump on this, a govt shutdown should be blamed on the presidents lack of leadership skills

I’m all for smaller government and less government interference in everything, I say let them shut down and cut a bunch of stuff.

I want just very basic government - roads, military, intelligence, etc. Lower my taxes and let everyone fend for themselves. Let the states deal with what they need.

I want less handouts and more people working and supporting themselves and their own families.

Should cut whole departments like the FCC, have less restrictions on programming. If you don’t want your kids seeing certain things on television then actually parent them. The government shouldn’t need to parent for you. See I’m a real liberal, not a fake liberal.

Don't participate in politics at all. Take it out of your life entirely. You wouldn't believe the success you find when you stop bitching and start acting.

I agree with you everyone wants a free handout I'm from Chicago the king of free handouts but you have to out hustle the game itself.

I cut grass for a living and became a millionaire in 10 years. From 15-25 all I did was cut grass non-stop. Out bid mexicans ZERO on a house just to prove to them I'd cut someones lawn for free to get them as a client.

For a gringo to be cutting 150 lawns and pulling bank like I was at my age showed me just how lazy the average American really is. This was when a lawn was 20/cut x 150 3,000 a week x 30-40 weeks a season.

I was making 100k in 2008 at 18. All cash.

Invested all the money in mainly semiconductors and ETF's/Index funds. Set for life.

That was all me too by the way. I'd have frinds cut with me every now and then but 10 years solo is how you make a million.

All these weak ass libtards would cry if they broke a finger nail.

I've been cutting my Ashram's grass for free for a DECADE. If I asked for money over the decade they'd owe me 300k. Why would I care about money? Once you've earned it do with it what you want.

Can't believe people still believe in politics at all it's almost like a sick joke at this point. Cringe level to think the crooks in congress got our backs when they sold our blue collar parents hard work from underneath them with slick bills through congress that eroded the middle class.

Donald Trump is an idiot and if you honestly think "military intelligence" is gonna wait on the "Don". Be real. Our military. The real heroes. They go out and do what Donald Drumpf never could. Be a real man.
