Re: So... The Government is Shut Down...

Good news: Congress still gets paid!
Washington Post ‏@washingtonpost 32m
REMINDER: Members of Congress get paid during a shutdown. Their salaries are written into permanent law. Congress gets paid during a shutdown, while staffers don’t. Here’s why.

And our WWII vets have something to do:
Breaking News ‏@BreakingNews 11m
World War II veterans have reportedly stormed the closed WWII memorial - @LeoShane


Seems to me like Congress ought not get paid, and the vets should be able to visit an open air memorial without having to storm it. Our country is eff'd up in so many ways

edit: maybe congress could donate their pay towards keeping the monuments open for now...
