U.S. GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN!!!!

I don't know about you all, but I am feeling the pinch!  I have to plan strategicly for everything that I do and now to hear that the government is planning on having a SHUTDOWN? It has those that are struggling with government supplied fixed incomes and who live from check to check and still need the help of public assistance in a frenzy!!!  The ABC World News just said last night that some, most or all of those benefits will be decreased, paid late or be suspended!

• Military workers/dependents may not be getting a check.
• Social Security recipients may not receive their checks.
• Those who haven't filed for tax returns and have yet to MAIL them in, may not get one.
• Adoption credits (monthly payments for people who've adopted children) may not go out.

From what the ABC World News is alleging, the government has by Friday at 11:59pm to figure this all out because if its not 12 midnight Saturday morning, the government has every intent on SHUTTING DOWN!!
