She is quite correct; however\u00a0personal issues have interfered. I won\u2019t whine here; I do enough of that to my wife. My daily mantra\u00a0(okay, throughout the day) is \u201cSuck it up Buttercup. The only easy day was yesterday.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y7 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">BUT! I have to say that I was IMMENSELY pleased and offer a HUGE THANK YOU to the Senate Minority leader, one Charles Scheemer!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y7 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">Of course he had absolutely no idea what he was doing. He was responding to the Marxists on his immediate left. GIVE NO GROUND! MEDICAL CARE FOR ILLEGALS! REFUND NPR!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y7 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">As if the normals in this country actually support such bullschiff. Apparently, he was asleep last November when the country overwhelming voted for PDJT. Normals don\u2019t like their tax dollars and\u00a0other borrowed funds (plus interest) being used to give medical care to people who shouldn\u2019t be here\u00a0in the first place. Nor do they want those same dollars used to support indoctrination over the public\u00a0airwaves. Or any of the other marxist schemes that was included in the Demonrat 1.5 TRILLION\u00a0dollar addition to the continuing resolution to keep the government running.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y11 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">So the gubbermint is shut down. Sort of. But that\u2019s a GOOD THING! As several people wiser than I\u00a0have warned, (but I can learn from them) anytime the government is functioning, your money and\u00a0your freedoms are in danger. Marxists believe that the gubbermint is absolutely necessary for life as\u00a0we know it to continue. Not even close. I bought gasoline yesterday. My wife bought groceries today.\u00a0As well as booze. Drug stores and hardware stores are open. Banks are open. Wall Street is soaring!<\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y16 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">There is nothing that a \u201cclosed\u201d gubbermint prevents me from accomplishing. Everything that is\u00a0mandated by legislation is continuing.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y18 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">That includes the Social Security payments and the Postal Service.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y19 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">BUT! And this is the good part. All of those \u201cnon-critical\u201d parts of the gubbermint are shut down. And\u00a0since they don\u2019t have funding to justify their existence\u2026why not turn them off? For everyone reading\u00a0this that has operated a business, how many \u201cnon-critical\u201d employees did you keep on the payroll?\u00a0Okay, how many non-critical, non-family member employees did you keep on the payroll? I suspect\u00a0not many. And, yes, I recognize \u201cspecial\u201d circumstances. But that\u2019s in private business. Such special\u201d situations don\u2019t belong on the gubbermint payroll. So, this is the perfect time to remove them.\u00a0Only a few gubbermint employees. The current estimate is only around 750,000. But it is a good start. Not all of them will go, of course. Some them are actually functional and some aren\u2019t active members\u00a0of the Deep State. The other benefit is the vast majority of them vote for Marxists. So, we can be rid of non-critical, mostly non-functioning TDS Deep State employees. That\u2019s the multi-functional useful\u00a0aspect of the shutdown.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"t pg-1m0 pg-1x1 pg-1h3 pg-1y24 pg-1ff1 pg-1fs0 pg-1fc0 pg-1sc0 pg-1ls0 pg-1ws0\">Of course, Chucky Scheemer didn\u2019t want this to happen at all. But the left wingnut hard Marxist coalition of his party wanted the shutdown so they could blame it on the Republicans\u2026.but uh\u00a0oh..that isn\u2019t happening. The Demonrats are responsible and even the Lame Stream Media are\u00a0acknowledging it as such. And A-O-C is aiming to primary Ol\u2019 Chucky. So, he has to prove he actually\u00a0has cojones by shutting down the gubbermint. He gets to lose both ways. He looks bad to the country\u00a0and he looks weak to his constituents. But they are in New York, so that may not matter.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"dp-doc-pages\">\n<div class=\"H_6D6F W_6D6F\" dir=\"ltr\" data-test-id=\"infinite-scroll-container\">\n<div class=\"p_R iy_h iz_A H_6D6F W_6D6F X_6Fd5 N_6Fd5 k_w\" role=\"navigation\" data-name=\"scroll-area\" data-test-id=\"virtual-list\" aria-label=\"Messages\">\n<div class=\"hd_n P_0 M_0 p_R\" data-name=\"infinite-scroll-content\" data-test-id=\"infinite-scroll-content\">\n<div id=\"pf2\" class=\"dp-page-outer\">\n<div class=\"dp-page-inner\">\n<div id=\"pg-2pf2\" class=\"pf pg-2w0 pg-2h0\" data-page-no=\"2\">\n<div class=\"pc pg-2pc2 pg-2w0 pg-2h0\">\n<div class=\"c pg-2x0 pg-2y1 pg-2w2 pg-2h2\">\n<div class=\"t pg-2m0 pg-2x1 pg-2h3 pg-2y2 pg-2ff1 pg-2fs0 pg-2fc0 pg-2sc0 pg-2ls0 pg-2ws0\">HEY CHUCK!
