The
longest in the U.S. history, the shutdown continues over a budget deal that no
side either the Democrats or the Republican President is willing to budge.
Since the Congress is getting paid during this shutdown, the effect of this
childish behavior has started to increasing impact every day Americans working
class. The dispute over the payment of the wall between Mexico and United
States is increasingly being played out to the world in ridiculous ways than it
was intended. I wrote long time ago in my blog that the neither parties are
interested to get rid of this debt ceiling and each side use it to their
advantage to keep the government open for a while till the next doomsday debt
ceiling limits hits and they try to get whatever they can to get their agenda
(whatever it can be) included in the budget deal.
Instead
of automatic extensions in the debt ceiling, the bickering and increasing
divisive parties of the United States tries to get what they think their voters
or constituents want and don’t hear the fact that the people of the United
States only want things to work smoothly since it is they who will eventually
foot the bill. But working together on budget deals is so loathsome to these
parties that in order for what they want, they will hurt people and their
country in the process. But again since the representatives are elected from
people, it is also the people’s fault that they are electing them to do these
kinds of things. That is why people are not confident; their representatives
are listening to them and we will have to wait how long this shutdown
continues.
