The following is a partial list of things the federal government was not prevented from doing today, despite supposedly lacking the basic funds to run web servers.

Funny how C-SPAN in Washington DC was showing all the monuments being shut down, where it took 5 times as many government employees and police to barricade monuments and police enforcement. This is government's "Symbolic Bullshit Propaganda" of "Shutdown"
PS: I hope all these furloughed government workers are NOT paid one dime during this shutdown. No retroactive pay via another taxpayers bailout for unproductive leeches, via force...
