On Monday, October 7, 2013 a article was published by: Editorial Board on Washington Post titled:"The House GOP has nothing to show for its government shutdown" This article is very interesting and a lot of people are wondering what the government has to show for the shutdown. Not much according to the Editorial Board. "Damage the livelihood of millions of Americans? Check. Government secretaries, food-truck operators, cleaners who work in motels near national parks: They’re all hurting."
The intended audience for this article it the people. The Editorial Board is letting the people know that the government hasn't shown any improvements since they started shutting down our government a little over a week ago.
In stead of helping the budget problem the
Editorial Board believes that the government is just wasting and losing a
ton of money. Wasting billions of taxpayer dollars on shutting down agencies, websites, and parks. It will cost a lot more to just reopen the stuff they have decided to close. Also the Editorial Board says another problem it that the House voted to pay the salaries of thousands of employees that have been ordered not to work. That's a lot of money that the government just gave to people who aren't even working right now.
Another thing that the Editorial Board wrote, the shut down has interfered with key government operations. The National Transportation Safety Board can't look into accidents right now of a death of a worker who lost his life working on Metro's Red Line, this could make accidents in the future more likely. Also Our U.S allies from Tokyo are wondering wither or not they can rely on us when our president went AWOL from they're summit meeting in their region, it was a very important summit too.
This article has a lot of great information there is also several other articles that are tagged into this article that does support this article really well.
The conclusion for this article is very clear. That sooner or later if this government shutdown continues people will start getting angry. The people are already blamed Obama and The House but if this gets worst the people might start blame anyone who might have had a hand in this shutdown. "Americans could end up blaming everyone who seems to have a hand in this mess." The writer wrote what the the House should do if they want to keep this mess from getting worst. "A temporary extension of the debt ceiling, a reopening of the government and a commitment to engage in a process that leads to budget and tax reform." The last point the Editorial Board makes is if the House doesn't do something soon they could destroy our country.
