The Government Shut Down is No Big Deal

“Crazy how the government has been shut down for over two weeks and — nobody even freaking noticed. Think about that for a second. Entire departments with thousands of government workers sitting at home and not a damn thing changed in your life. Roads didn't disappear, the lights didn't go out, country didn't collapse.

So maybe the real question is, were they ever really essential anyway? We've been told for decades that the government keeps the country running, that without it, Society would crumble. Right? But if you can shut the whole thing down and nothing changes, it's a pretty clear indication that the system isn't what's holding everything together. We are.

Because while corrupt politicians are busy f*cking off and blowing taxpayer dollars on lavish parties in far off lands — It's us, the producers, the builders, the small business owners, the blue collar men and women showing up every damn day who actually keep this country running. And what do we get in return? Higher taxes, higher prices, and less freedom.

They print fake money, they throw it at failed programs, and they still tell you to do your part. Meanwhile, your dollar buys less and your work gets taxed more. And the people making the rules never feel a single ounce of the pain that they caused. $37 trillion in debt, and these clowns still act like the solution is to spend more. More agencies, more staff, more handouts, more bullshit titles that don't contribute a shred of value to the American people.

That is not how this country's government was intended to run. It's a bloated system feeding itself while pretending to serve you.

The truth is, if an entire department can shut down for weeks and nobody notices, that means that the system is irrelevant. It's dead weight, and the American people are doing just fine without them because we're the ones who are keeping this great American nation alive, not the suits in DC”
