Shutdown?

Any bets out there?

From the Hill (mostly centrist, but with a slight left tilt)

As a preliminary matter, this is a good fight to have — good politically and good for the nation. Our federal government is projected to run up between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion in debt this year alone. The Congressional Budget Office projects that outlays this year will be $6.4 trillion with only $4.8 trillion in revenues.

I say shut it down, why keep COVID level spending when we are no longer in lock-down?

But I bet people here will disagree & want to follow a misplaced Keynesian model.

I love government shutdowns. Exposes just how worthless government is and how little we need it. No need to send half our hard earned money to these aging corrupt degenerate losers
