Shutting Down of the Government... Could this really be happening? On the front page of the Washington Post online showed an article about the government shutting down in October. Hook. Line. Sinker. No fancy title was necessary. Anything about the government shutting down would catch anyone's eye. Many problems seem to be contributing to this potential shut down of the government. The first is that the end of the fiscal year is on October 1st, and no spending bills have been passed which are necessary for the government to operate. Benefits, social security and national security would continue on while every federal employee would see a delay in any sort of pay as well as the military. Obamacare will also be kicked off on October 1st, but it is in need of funding which is being fought over to be stripped to help the government not shut down. America has already reached the borrowing limit. Where is all this money going to come from? Obamacare needs to wait. In the end that will help for the government to stay running; at least for a period of time seeing as how this wasn't the first time.
