Hii mi kwamba wameshindwa tu kukubaliana kwenye hoja ya healthy care kwa raia wao, kwenye bunge, na kule wakishindwa kukubaliana shughuli za kiserikali zinasimama mpaka wakipiga kura tena au wakikaa kwa maongezi na chama kingine wakakubaliana bac, inaendelea, kwa hiyo ofisi zote za kiserikali zimefungwa, yaani kama bongo hivi mawizara yote na halmashauri na serikali za mitaa n.k kwa kuwa wanalipwa kwa masaa wafanyakazi wa serikali wanapiga kelele kwamba wata survive vipi, i hope nimeeleza vizuri

Na kwa nini wameshindwa kukubaliana kwenye swala la health care?Kwa undani kabisa kabisa ili kuelewa vizuri ni kama kuuleta hoja ya Azimio La Zanzibar na Azimio La Arusha na uulize Watanzania wanapedelea nini na kati ya vyama vilivyopo ni kipi kikigependelea Upande gani.Republican wakipata msukumo toka Tea Party ni Wagumu. Wangewaza kukubalina na mitizamo migumu kama ambayo sasahivi ni kama ndoto zile za Azimio la Arusha. Wanamuona Obama kama mlaini anayetaka kujilainisha kwa wanachi wake kwa kujitakia misifa asiyoweza kuitekeleza katika hali ya uhalisia zaidi ya kujipendekeza kuwafanyia kila kitu huku hana hela ya kutimizia ahadi zake zaidi ya kukopa kusiko na kikomo.Wanataka kujinyima na kutokuwa na matumizi yasiyokuwa na msingi na wanachi wajifunze kuishi kwa jasho lao.Hali hii ya kujiyima na kupunguza matumizi ni ngmu na democrat ni kama wanataka mambo yarahisishwe.

• In U.S. politics, a government shutdown is a situation in which Congress fails to pass authorization for sufficient funds for government operations. ...
  Government shutdown - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Question: Why a shutdown?
Answer: Every year, Congress has to approve laws, known as appropriations, that provide money for federal agencies. The new budget year begins on Oct. 1, and Congress has failed to pass a single one of the appropriations. An effort to pass a stop-gap bill to provide temporary money has stalled in Congress: Republicans have insisted they will not approve the stop-gap measure unless Democrats agree to block money for President Obama’s healthcare law, and Democrats have refused to do that. Under federal law, if an agency does not have an appropriation law in force, it can’t spend money, so it has to close.


Q: Do all government programs stop?
A: No. There are three big categories that don’t. Some programs don’t require annual appropriations. That group, which includes Social Security, Medicare and other so-called entitlements, continue without interruption. The second group entails functions “necessary to protect life or property.” Law enforcement, the military, intelligence agencies and foreign embassies all will stay open. Finally, some programs have other sources of money that will allow them to function for a while. Courts, for example, can spend money they have collected through fines and fees, funds that would allow them to keep functioning for a while.

Q: What are some examples of government offices that will close?
A: The national parks, federally owned museums, such as the Smithsonian, offices overseas that give visas to foreigners hoping to visit the United States, many federal regulatory agencies, IRS call centers that provide assistance to taxpayers and most offices that handle federal grants and contracts will all close.

Q: What happens to federal workers?
A: At least 800,000 federal civilian workers will be furloughed. They will not be paid during the shutdown.

Q: Will workers get back pay once the shutdown ends?
A: The last time this happened, during the Clinton administration, Congress approved retroactive pay. There’s no guarantee, however.

Q: What impact will all this have on the economy?
A: A lot depends on how long a shutdown lasts. If the duration is only a few days, the economic impact will be small. But the impact builds with time. The tourism industry will be among the first hit because of the closure of parks and the inability of foreign tourists to get visas.

Q: Why hasn’t Congress passed its appropriations bills on time?
A: Passing money bills has been difficult for years because of disputes between the two parties about how much to spend. This year, the problem got a lot worse after House Republicans passed a budget plan that called for deep cuts in spending. When the time came to translate those overall spending numbers into specific appropriations bills, the bills failed because many Republicans decided the spending levels were too low.
What shuts down in a government shutdown

Q: How long will a shutdown last?
A: Both Republicans and Democrats will be watching to see which side gets blamed for the impasse. Whichever side is losing the battle for public opinion will eventually decide the price has gotten too high and will offer concessions. In the Clinton administration, there were two government shutdowns. One lasted five days, the other, which affected only part of the government, went on for three weeks.

Tatizo ni kwa wafanyakazi kutolipwa mishahara wakati watoaji wa maamuzi wanapata pesa zao kama kawaida!

Hapa ndipo man made law ilipoifikisha Amerika.
