The Government has shut down a bunch of times. every time it has only been non-essential services. In simple terms the military do not get furloughed, though the civilians in Supply would likely.
This I can agree with you! But the problem is that is the Government that decides IF you get anything & how much!
Some were, but not very many!

First of all that sounds like Westborugh Baptist, and that wasn't gay funerals. It was military funerals, likely for the publicity it would bring!

Agreed! Which is why there is always an argument. What it IS vs What was INTENDED. Seems like there is a party that wants credit, and to be the "good guys", based on what they intended to do rather...
Factually true I agree. But this could be considered a form of testing.
I was going to say AGW but thought the meaning would be lost!
Although you "paid" in you didn't really "earn" anything for those payments. Since you were not really buying something, you were being taxed by the Government to fund a benefit program.

Alright then Global Warming is a theory!
Gravity is a theory!!

Hear! Hear!
"I fail to understand how taking LESS from some one -rich, middle class or poor - provides the resources to "give" to some one else."
Government should not be doing this at all!
