I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I heard that the US government shut down on Friday.
Is that good or what?
Not according to CNN though...
5 ways the government shutdown could be bad for your health
- CNN(CNN)A government shutdown could potentially hurt the health of more than the government workers who will be plagued with the uncertainty and stress of not knowing when they'll get back to work and collect a paycheck. The shutdown could impact you, too.
The government plays an outsized role in protecting our public health. A little more than half of the employees at the Department of Health and Human Services -- 41,203 out of 82,148 -- would be furloughed, according to the department's 2017 contingency plan. That means entire projects will stop and whole safety programs could go on hiatus.
...outsized role in protecting our public health
Wow! ... Really?
Let me remind you this' CNN report.
Let me ask a stupid question, "Will Americans all get sick and die next week on?"
My two cents: I don't think so
Life goes on with or without a government
...at least for me
