A federal government shutdown at midnight on Friday has become a very real possibility.
At the White House on Tuesday, Speaker of the House John Boehner (R.-Ohio) told President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.) that Republicans want real and significant spending cuts in any deal for a long-term Continuing Resolution (CR) to fund the government. Obama and Reid refused to accept real and deeper spending cuts, which broke down the negotiations."
“So you think that money is the root of all evil?” said Francisco d’Anconia. “Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them.” … “Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?” - Atlas Shrugged
