To even associate the term shut down with what is going on is nothing more than a lie and scare tactic. Quoting: Patrick Bateman i have been saying this all night. The US Government has nothing to do with the Federal system, OTHER THEN MONEY. |

Unless you work in a museum or national park. Even then, it most likely will not last more than a few days. But, I disagree with the finishing off statement.

Quoting: Astral Goat Lol. My uncle is a ranger, but for the state, not federal. I've thought about signing up actually. Just to be able to go to park whenever I please even after hours for stargazing etc... |
