    @realcaseyrollins why do you want a bullshit pork roll?

    What does the federal government do that you want to keep around?

      National defense

      Fight federal crimes

      Collect taxes

      Legislate

      Negotiate with foreign governments

      Set economic policies

      There’s a lot the federal government does that it needs to continue doing! I feel like the “just shut it all down” people fall into the categories of:

      1. Enjoying chaos/wanting to watch the world burn

      2. Disgruntled libertarians who are mad that the government is too big (they’re right BTW)

      3. Trump shills

        @realcaseyrollins @Sirpantangelini they can stay out of economic policy as far as I'm concerned.

        Also, there are far too many federal crimes.

        And our international policy for several administrations has been "give us your shit or we'll bomb you into the ground and take it ". Let's have less of that please.
