America's Current Situation

The government has shut down but federal employees are still expected to work... I hope no major problems arise out of this retarded situation. If Obama was really for the people, he would've slightly raised taxes and created universal health care similar to that of other countries. Everyone gets basic treatment (Like injuries and giving birth) but no-one comes out of pocket. There would be no shut-down right now... But again, we are allowing this to happen because few people give a damn about how the country they live in is run... That's cool; continue on with your regularly scheduled program until the political shenanigans start to affect your daily life even more... (To the point where you will notice and pay attention <- By then it will be too late) It sounds negative but needs to be said.
