GOP To Shut Down The Govt...AGAIN!

Republicans Willing to Take Food From The Mouths Of 45 Million People
Over Planned Parenthood


Quoted Text
On Tuesday, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) warned Congress,
grocery stores, and poor children, the elderly, poverty-level working Americans, and the disabled

Americans will go hungry. A USDA spokesperson said:

In a statement, Sen. Sanders (I-VT):

Quoted Text
Republicans are once again taking us to the edge of a government shutdown, demanding we
take away health care from the American people. Defunding Planned Parenthood would deny hundreds
of thousands of Americans access to services such as birth control, cancer screenings and STI tests.

We know shutting the government down will disrupt the economy and cost us jobs – it did in 2013 and
it will if Republicans do it again. I hope my colleagues in both the House and the Senate come to their
senses. Kids in Head Start, federal employees, the men and women of our military and law enforcement
agencies and so many others should not pay the price for such a radical agenda.

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

As I said in another thread, it will be Obama shutting down the government since he will be the one to veto the bill.

Quoted Text
Today’s Federal Debt is about $18,150,263,023,000.

The amount is the gross outstanding federal debt issued by the United States Department of the Treasury since 1790.

But, it doesn’t include state and local debt.

And, it doesn’t include so-called “agency debt.”

And, it doesn’t include the so-called unfunded liabilities of entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare.

Federal Debt per person is about $55,624.

At the end of FY 2015 the total government debt in the United States, including federal, state, and local, is expected to be $21.7 trillion.

and entitlements are not effected by a gov shut down.
