[Heather MC]

so stupid

We are Driving on E. in the Desert and we just passed the last Gas station without stopping
WHY?

[gopiscrap]

1. Insane and to think none of this needed to happen

had it not been for forty or so fucking assholes

[Heather MC]

2. Let's reign in Government spending by

making a giant barn fire and Tossing tax payer money on it
great plan!

5. yeah bunch of dumb asses

3. As well as many, many other things being affected.

Here's just two that I know about: a whole bunch of science at the South Pole, including the entire observing season for the South Pole Telescope, has been cancelled.

Here in New Mexico, people who want to cut wood in the national forests can't get permits.

I'm am sure there are hundreds, perhaps thousands of other things that are being affected that you wouldn't normally think of.

We voted for the Black Guy

8. And I believe the vote was unanimous to pay all the furloughed workers.

Fixing the debt is easy: Congress just needs to stop spending so much.
