How can a government shut down? Explain please

The conservative republicans in the house are desperately trying to defund Obamacare before the exchanges open on October 1. This happens to be the same date that the government needs to have a budget passed to stay open. They decided to tie the defunding of Obamacare to this "continuing resolution" in order to keep the government funded. This will not pass the democratic senate or the president's veto. Essentially, the senate will strip out the provision that requires a defunding of Obamacare and this bill to keep the government open will go back to the house, where they will have to decide whether they "give up" their fight against Obamacare by approving the senate's stripped down version or not approve a budget at all and then the government shuts down for the first time since 1995-96. The deadline is midnight as the Fiscal Year for 2013 ends.

The government hasn't passed a budget since 2009 and has been on a continuing resolution since then with cuts coming this year due to the debt ceiling crisis in 2011.

The debt ceiling will be reached on 10/17 and we'll have another showdown where the Republicans in the House will try to prevent the ceiling to increase so that they can cut government spending.

^ Interesting, thanks

Fah, your retardation has no bound.

its quite clear that these tea party racists are still angry over the election result lol, the truth is if they choose to shut the goverment down, it will only hurt them come 2014 mid term election and 2016, it did hurt them back 1995 too. their dream to defund, repeal Obama care will never happen. not any time soon. let them commit political suicide

government is shut down

Dis is a game but ppl think is real all dis was planned out obama jus reads a script

The same thing happened couple decades ago and that one lasted for a month or two I think.

Does this mean Obama is going to have to hire his own maids @ the White House?

Fah, ditch that sinking ship and come to Canada, don't worry we're very kind to refugees *wink

So who is the new president of USA then? This is not fair, why they govt kicks out the first black president, I think they are just racist.

How are government officials getting paid

How are government officials getting paid

If you're deemed essential, you will get paid but those that are non essential will be furloughed
