"The contingency fund is only used for actual emergencies, not to feed people." ( or keep a roof over their heads as aside from employees not being paid, section 8 is going to collapse too ) And yet we can still give money to other countries..
Of course none of this effects the elite, or members of congress.
And i saw a comment " if a state uses its own funds to keep these programs going during the shutdown, they will not be reimbursed" Really?
Is this the final straw? Is it time for cake yet?
