The Government

How could we have possibly gotten to the point that our government is so on opposite ends that they felt it was necessary to shut down the government? Do people think Obama-Care is that bad? Bad enough to shut down our countries order and all websites related to the government.? I think they need to solve this problem as soon as possible or else our country could be targeted by other countries, as most of our police force, our C.I.A and F.B.I  are all on "vacation" without pay.  We need to solve this problem of the Republicans not passing the budget and the Democrats being stubborn about what they want, and in the last piece of the Obama interview. He stated, "wall street should be worried". The previous government shutdowns in 1995 and 1996 lasted for a total of 27 days and that was when the republicans were on better terms with the democrats. I believe this one could last much longer.
