Some of the people on this thread apparently have never been alive or at least aware of the last government shutdown. The sky is not falling folks.

Glass-Steagall legislation was struck down during the Clinton administration, the dot com bubble burst shortly thereafter because of that, the funding law was changed during that same period, yes?.
This all started when the law to prevent another "Great depression" was struck down, the banks have been playing games with other people's money since that time.
Our economy is based on nothing of substance and because of that we don't need workers to produce anything of substance anymore.
It won't work for long without removing a factor here or a factor there. The question is which factor will be removed, and how.
Bill wasn't as smart as he was devious and in league with the worst aspects of humanity, legislation has been passed putting a stranglehold on everything ever since. According to Clinton, and other legal types, we are not losing any freedom, freedoms' interpretation is being changed to suit their purposes.
More of us better wake up soon and agree on an action to take before it's illegal to even talk to one another.
