2 checks.   They've missed 2 checks and are going to food pantries? 

Apply for a 18 mo interest free CC.   All good.

Don’t these people know that they need to have a rainy day fund? 

Just horrendous that we aren’t paying the coast guard and everyone else becuase the two sides don’t want to give up a win and be seen as bending. Even though the issue at hand is so irrelevantly small that it is laughable. And it’s also hilarious that people still think this shutdown is about border funding. Americans are sheep.

Honestly.  It’s on the local news here because we’ve got a decent amount of them around here.  Last one was, “We are scared how we are going to feed our five children.”  FIVE?  You’ve got five!!!  And the wife was a “homemaker”.

smh.  “We make poor decisions....who can we blame?”

The CIA says any country is 9 missed meals from revolution. Even the US. 

It only takes about 3% of the population to overthrow a government...

The vast percentage of Americans think that. As they should. 

Vast.  :lol:  Note its a WaPo ABC poll.   :lol:  

According to a Washington Post-ABC News poll released Sunday, more than half of Americans (53 percent) say the president and his party should shoulder most of the blame for the closures; another 29 percent point their finger at Democrats in Congress. Just 13 percent of Americans say both sides should be held accountable as the shutdown continues to drag on.

The way you phrased it, 13% seems high to me.  It's a two party system now,  Party in power and the obstructionist party.

'Murica wins!!!!  Quick....take to social media and be mad and build a hate group of like kind!!  :lol:

True but poll demographics can make a big difference.

Even if that poll is fucked to all hell, the number should be closer to 100 then 0... Anyone who doesn’t hold both parties in contempt, is wrong and should get a lobotomy.  

Agreed.
