Why is the government shut down right now? If President Donald J. Trump is the king, why would he need permission to do anything? He could declare, by decree, that the government be open right now. On his terms. Under his...

DB @porwest Yep, why they want more money. They promised it would cost only 100 million to subsidize initially but wound up costing 800 million. Now they want over a trillion to keep it going. We just can't afford it! And universal health care (the Dems goal)...

DB @porwest No worries. I enjoyed reading your comments all of which makes "logical sense." If our trade partners (like Canada) would stop hating Trump and focus on playing fair in trade, not only would it be good for the U.S., but they would also make a lot of...

DB Exactly, and they want to make those who are able to work, not elderly or infirm, to get off the couch and find part time employment or to at least be looking for a job. There were too many receiving health assistances that do not qualify. In addition, what...

DB No, trade with other countries still goes on and is not affected by the shutdown. Otherwise, we might have another shortage crisis like what happened during Covid. Yikes!

DB No, they get their paychecks. Which is wrong. If they won't vote to reopen the government then they should not be paid until they do. Our House of Representatives (Republican members) voted to extend government funding until November 21st. Wonder what would...
