USA no $$$ to pay Public servants, force Shut Down
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
What does Integrity, Trust and Highest Standard means to our Gahment... Without $$$ all is talk only! Will our Civil Servants work without salary... Sacrifies for the Nation? US begins government shutdown as budget deadline passes The US government has begun a partial shutdown after the two houses of Congress failed to agree a new budget. The Republican-led House of Representatives insisted on delaying President Barack Obama's healthcare reform - dubbed Obamacare - as a condition for passing a bill. More than 700,000 federal employees face unpaid leave with no guarantee of back pay once the deadlock is over. It is the first shutdown in 17 years and the dollar fell early on Tuesday. Goldman Sachs estimates a three-week shutdown could shave as much as 0.9% from US GDP this quarter. On Tuesday, Mr Obama blamed the House of Representatives for the stalemate and said he would "keep working to get Congress to reopen the government [and] restart vital services". "This shutdown was completely preventable. It should not have happened," he wrote in a letter to federal government employees. "And the House of Representatives can end it as soon as it follows the Senate's lead, and funds your work in the United States Government without trying to attach highly controversial and partisan measures in the process."
