I hope our legislators shut the federal government down. We did not vote for this pork fest of a budget of $1 trillion, and we did not want this "supposed" immigration reform, which looks like amnesty and an increase in immigration. We voted for a change of direction for America, especially for the devastated middle class. This is looking more and more like a 'corporatocracy' than a true Democracy. We the people elect a Democrat or Republican, and the corporations take it from there.
