USA: the Federal State in bankruptcy ... temporary?

News of the day ... rest assured it is only for 1 day ... well I think!

Tuesday 1 October - 07: 07
UNITED STATES. For lack of budget, the federal state is forced to cease its activities


Faced with the failure of Congress to vote a budget before the deadline, the White House ordered just before midnight US federal agencies to cease operations, Monday 30 September, putting nearly a million employees on unemployment. This shutdown seemed more and more inevitable as the start of fiscal year 2014 approached, before which Congress had to approve appropriations to ensure that the state could operate.

Democrats and Conservatives have not reached an agreement to vote the 2014 budget. Federal agencies will remain closed. 800.000 federal officials will be on leave without pay.

It is still well done, if the Republicans and Democrats do not agree on the budget, the fantasies of the tea party is realized. : Shock:

It does not risk anything, it's mostly cinema, and then after all it's already happened at least fifteen times the shutdown, and we're still waiting for the end of the world ...

Note that I would not be against a little animation! But do not dream.

Cinema I don't know, but little political shenanigans between "friends" yes!
