>>Next month, you Freepers may want to avoid South Chicago, East Saint Louis, Watts, South Dallas, Miami, Harlem, Baltimore ... ans similar locations!<<

To be safe give Walmart a wide berth no matter where you live.

The national government will be accumulating money without any authority to spend it.

I hope the Government Shutdown goes on until Mueller closes out his witch-hunt.

It will shorten the lines at WalMart and the grocery stores.


i.e. it will expose how much our economy depends on them getting their money, and expose the real reason it exists.

People wonder what will happen when computers and AI take too many people’s jobs and one solution offered is to give everyone a “guaranteed” stipend to live, and then those that work will earn enough to buy more stuff than those on stipend only.

It sounds, to some, like a “win win” sort of thing and everybody would be happy.

Problem is, in a very real way, that is exactly where we are. That’s what welfare, snap, etc. are. Those people don’t seem very happy.

I wonder how many “food stamp customers”, who just might be using a food delivery service, will be dismayed?

In other words, I ain’t got one to give!

All welfare for illegals and US Citizens should be in one bucket. When it runs out there is no more. Maybe that will change the outlook of some wanting more illegal immigrants.

"Instead of finding jobs they will take to the streets and blame Trump of course."

Or, they and the MSM will demand Nancy come back from her Hawaiian vacation villa, get off her fat a** and do her damn job.

(Yes, I know it's a fantasy.)

“Illegal alien” is the legal term as defined in the US Code.

Even if it goes on that long, the money will be found. Read the AgSec’s statement. :-)

Nothing like a few wrinkles in the belly to encourage work.

That could be a long time. What if the Mueller investigations team runs out of money? Will they have to shut down?

They have a blank check to continue this circus forever. I'd tie the government shutdown resolution to that. If he wants to go on another year, keep the government shut down for a year. OH, and never open it back up until we have border security funding.
