I am not understanding what all it has/will be effecting. But I am trying to keep up on the news as depressing as it is. Wic is shut down. Soon to be Foodstamps. What else?? What is to follow? Some are unable to feed there young, feed themselves yet our president is still getting paid? Where is the morals? Don't they realize they are NOT accomplishing anything by this shutdown? I believe that it has been over a week since our shut down. & what has it done? Cut money to our vets...cut food to children.. WHAT IS THE POINT? and when will it all stop?
