#089: U.S. Government Shutdown

The United States government has shut down. The reasons are myriad, but boil down to leadership. The Democrats have tried to represent those they serve and vote to protect them. The Republicans have their own agenda to advance tax cuts for the rich. This involves cutting costs, cutting programs, and cutting services for many Americans. Particularly, those in need.

Leadership is about “doing the right thing.”  On display by the Republican Party is exactly the opposite.
