That was fun. I went back and got it up to 59 again. Heh.
I bet the kooks are flipping out WTF? WF? WTF? lmao.
Good for you and for us.
We’ll have to keep an eye on it to make sure there isn’t a counter-FReep on it.
The usual crap.
Nothing between "It Would Impact Me Slightly," and "Total Devastation"
How about "It would impact me significantly, but I would survive, knowing that the government, and its supporting parasites, would certainly not!?"
Of course, the government cannot in any way steal from the parasites, but any normal prudent citizen would be attacked viciously with total confiscations.
At that point, all bets are off.
A lot of people are going to be laid off or their hours reduced. It might seem funny to you, but I work on an Army base and trust me, we aren’t laughing.
Maybe you are independently weathly and can afford not to get paid, but the majority of us aren’t so fortunate.
Wow! Go there and you can watch that Bengazi movie ‘innocence of Muslims’ while voting like a Democrat.
Just voted. Here are the results:
Wouldn’t Notice 60.0%
It Would Impact Me Slightly 5.2%
Total Devastation 34.8%
but...isn’t that what Dear Leader is saying?
SS will NOT be going out?
What’s unfortunate is that our President holds our military hostage FIRST, instead of LAST like a traditional American president would. THAT’S what’s unfortunate, kind of like ending public tours of the White House but having Hollywood celebrity parties inside.
Now at 60.3 percent.
Pour it on, Freepers!

“SS will NOT be going out?”
_________________________________________
From what I read, SS will be paid.
61% wouldn’t notice by now - good freepin’
Wouldn’t Notice 61.3%
It Would Impact Me Slightly 5.0%
Total Devastation 33.7%
How do those 33.7% of people survive every weekend? The rest of us consider the weekends to be our most enjoyable days of the week, yet the non-essential parts of the government are shut down at the Federal, State and Local levels! Those people must spend their weekends just gnashing their teeth!
Nice pic! I just stole it and posted in on FB!
“A lot of people are going to be laid off or their hours reduced. It might seem funny to you, but I work on an Army base and trust me, we aren’t laughing.”
Which has been happening in the private sector for YEARS and is only ramping up faster with Obamacare! You better hope the government shuts down for a few days so that we can get rid of Obamacare. If we don’t, then the private sector will be devastated and unable to fund the public sector.
>>Nice pic! I just stole it and posted in on FB!<<
Good, ‘cause I stole it from FB.
There is a symmetry there (lol)...
>>A lot of people are going to be laid off or their hours reduced. It might seem funny to you, but I work on an Army base and trust me, we aren’t laughing.<<
When you take OPM as the source of your income then you get everything that goes with it.
We got a LOT of posts of the same sort when Sequestration kicked in.
The Government is TOO F’ING BIG! There will be MANY talented people who will be given their walking papers when Cruz takes over and makes the Govt. live within its means (as this will do).
If it can afford to do without your services perhaps you should shop your talents to someone who actually needs them.
I am not going to go into debt to keep you or anyone else who isn’t doing the minimum essential services employed.
If the money runs out and you are cut loose by definition you were extraneous/superfluous to begin with.
