Re: Opinions on the U.S. federal government shutdown

I think it's definitely a bad thing. I don't think it's acceptable for a small minority of politicians hold the country hostage while the economy suffers.

Personally, I'm not very affected, but things that I care about are, namely the NASA grants and national parks. Within FIRST, I know a lot of teams are supported by NASA grants, and without the government those don't happen. I'm also very into the outdoors, and having places like Yosemite and Mt. Rainier closed just isn't okay with me.
