It will end in civil war. I am not sure exactly how or when,or even who will win, but when the communists start taking the retirement funds and bank accounts, (and they WILL)things will ramp up a bit. Trying to deal with this country’s problems peaceably now is akin to asking Jesse James to please stop robbing banks at the height of his career...

What happens next when it reaches the Senate?

At that point, the Democrat Party becomes responsible for any decision to shut down the Federal Government. That is what happens next.

Let's put the left on the defensive -- for once.

I get the feeling the reason some of them do not want to defund Obamacare is there is too much money invested to see Obamacare implemented. They do not want to give up lucrative profits.

Just a hunch.

What? Insider trading based on non-public knowledge?! Why, I’m shocked to hear such innuendo and conjecture....Why, I’m sure Dumbo himself has virtuously made his um-teenth $M from the same cattle futures Hillary used /s

GOP is SCARED TO DEATH of the inevitable race riots that will ensue.

Okay, given that would be the result, we're going to have those riots anyway when the Great Teat goes dry. I'd just as soon get it over with before they buy up even more ammo with my tax money and it disappears from warehouses.

7.62X39? The US Government is buying up ammo for east-bloc rifles? Who for? Not your local sheriff!

Because once liberals get one of their cockamamie ideas enshrined into law, it's, well, the law!

To try to reverse it would be, ooooohh, regressive, and that's a terrible thing to the Left.

Wall Street and the large multi national corporations want to eliminate the cost of health care from employee benefits by offloading it to the government.

This.

I worked briefly for a big-box store (not WalMart) and I could tell that they did not want to pay for any healthcare for the common worker. The plans were priced well beyond their ability to pay for it and still have anything left in their paycheck.

It seems to me that the big-box stores make sure to pay their workers low enough salaries so they qualify for food stamps and medicare (medicaid?). Offloading all of their employees healthcare costs onto the government means a fatter profit margin for them (and for the government, more revenue in taxes on that profit).

A win-win for both large corporations and the feral government. The only loser: us.
