Congress need to be held accountable when they fail to do their jobs.
Can’t do the literal very core of your job and pass a budget? Whole house gets flushed. Every incumbent barred from holding office for one full term.
You do realize that actually insensitivizes log jamming right?
The oppo just has to stop the budget from passing and there goes the entire winning majority’s incumbents.
MTG would be frothing at the mouth dreaming of being able to cause so much headache.
They said “whole house” that means the people on both sides lose their job.
And? Do you really think those lunatics will run out of zealots they can throw at killing every budget they can until there’s no opposition left?
Do you really expect them to intentionally lose their job to piss off the opposition? We’re talking about people who cling to power until they die in office.
Why not just stop paying them anything in case of shutdown? I mean, aren’t they part of government?
i’ve heard that they’re paid during a shutdown to stop wealthy politicians who don’t need the income from forcing politicians who use their income to live to bend over for them
