Shutting down the government is nothing but a tactic to scare the public into pressuring their Congresspeople into “doing something.”
So, all right. What isn’t affected? Quite a bit, as it turns out.
Postal Service? Unaffected. TSA? Unaffected. Medicare and Medicaid? Unaffected. Social Security checks? Unaffected. Mueller investigation? Unaffected.
In short, a “shutdown” is very rarely a shutdown. The government continues as usual. Entitlement checks go out. Most government services stay open — particularly since this time, there’s funding in place for most of the federal leviathan.
In other words, nothing happens!
