Yep, we MUST do whatever it takes or else?

Or else what? A massive government shutdown, a fiscal infarction ending all hope for our country. For God's sake (there it is vsg), just pass the CR and save us all.

We have seen this movie plenty of times and guess what, we have survived each and every shutdown with the average Citizen barely noticing any effect. SS checks will still go out. We will hear about all the poor government workers who will be without paycheck for a while, but back pay is always restored when a spending bill is ultimately passed. So the period while they wait really amounts to additional paid vacation. Plus only 6% of them were coming to the office anyway.

Kill this dumpster fire of a CR, especially as it exists now, 1,547 pages with all the larding heaped in. It won't hurt at all except to give Hakeem Jeffries, et al a talking point and nobody cares about that anymore.
