[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know in reality this is not feasible, but I wish they would actually shut down the entire govt, not the 25% a PP quoted. No Medicare, social security, air traffic control, etc would quickly put an end to any future shut down talk.[/quote]

To remind everyone:

“We found out what was happening with air traffic control, with the walkout,” he said. “We decided to take the train.”
But within hours, lawmakers had a deal for ending the shutdown. Whether the slowdown at LaGuardia moved that along isn’t clear, but at least one member of Congress took to Twitter to declare it had made the difference.
“Thank you air traffic controllers," tweeted D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton. "You scared Trump into opening the government.”
