I’ve seen so much stuff on what it means and how it affects people but I can’t find anything on the reason behind why anyone wants to shut down the government
It’s an unfortunately common, bullshit move politicians pull, just to have something to hang over each other’s heads in order to get what they want. Unfortunately, that has become totally ok in the eyes of Republican voters because it’s often the only way for their reps to force through budget items that would otherwise never make it.
Republicans* pull
Because congress has totally abdicated their constitutional duties - read it - this is not how our government works - this is an inexorably broken government - both sides.
In what way is this the fault of both sides? This is very clearly an entirely manufactured “crisis” by the GOP.
Republicans breaking the give to own the libs
