How has the federal government shutdown affected you?

Don't forget about Syria and the Benghazi Attack , IRS no probe, ect. All of the REAL fabricated scandals that magically disappeared for the news.

Might just be that Checks and Balances are operating just the way they should.)

No effect, they are still pissing away my tax dollars away at astronomical speeds.

Until the debt ceiling stops all borrowing. At that point, revenues go to whatever priority the president decides. It should be pay off the interest on the debt, social security, miltary, etc..... No default is necessary. We may have to bring home some troups to deal with the welfare riots. We'll have to cut 40% of our spending.

We have friends that were camping at a Corps of Engineers park, and were made to leave. They shut those down too.

ATF still says they are infront of computers but cannot use them.

The shutdown has not bothered me. I am fed up over the coverage of it especially since the House voted to reimburse lost wages. What is the point if that money is spent anyway?

That's the most bogus logic I've ever heard (wait... this just in... something new from congress).

We're going to shut down the government, BUT we're going to spend the same amount of money shut down that we would've open for business.

I did a efile yesterday. got all the way through it and went to pay and it locked up. Do you think it filed? or do you have to submit payment before anything starts? I thinking I screwed. What say you?

When you get to the end of the form you have to click pay and pay for the tax then you hit sign and submit, only after that is your form in process.

Went to the VA in Dallas yesterday for some medical appointments. The DAV was open but since the computers in DC and Waco were off line they couldn't answer my questions. Also, the VBA office was closed for the duration of the shutdown so filing applications for disability and related stuff there is shutdown. No real affect on me as all I had were some questions but irritating none the less. These offices are not staffed by government employees yet the government shutdown effectively closed or curtailed their activities.
