lets really shut gov down. No paychecks for the military. They get all their needs provided by the taxpayer anyway. Why do they need a paycheck any more than tsa or border patrol ?
Close the Social Security Administration. Close HUD. Shut down the IRS and delay tax refunds. Forfeit Congressmen's pay for everyday there is a shutdown. All of those things would end it quickly. That's exactly why none of these things are affected. You notice, it's always the lesser functions of government that most people don't even notice day to day that get "shut down" and that's by design. If the shut down actually affected the things I mentioned above there would be riots in the streets.
