THE ZOO IS CLOSED... and when I say "zoo" I mean Federal Government


yes... the Federal Government Closure Effects us in many ways
more ways that we can currently visualize
to those whose vacation plans are altered
that rafting trip in the Grand Canyon
that trip to the museums on the National Mall
that playdate at pizza park a The National Zoo

those are some changes

hopefully the Government employees who have been sent home will get back pay
but the contractors?
the people working hourly?
what about them?

there will be some serious backlash from this Government Shutdown
and more than just a kid not getting to see the pandas
