[quote=Anonymous]OK, you know what? I'm a fed who makes $100K+ per year. I have an emergency fund and over 6 months of expenses in savings. Will I be able to weather a shutdown? Sure. But I'm also pregnant with my second kid, getting ready to pay for 2 daycares, trying to save for 2 college educations, and retirement. Dipping into my savings means I won't be able to put my money towards any of those while I build my savings back up. And while that's what savings are for, it is galling that I have to do this because the lunatic fringe of the GOP decided to put their own personal interests above the country's. I'm here, ready to do my job, and I won't get paid. They're not doing their jobs, and they will. That is some rank bullshit.[/quote]
