Shutdown - The tea party`s last move?

[Whateverist]

You are aware that people on the other side of the political fence similarly believe you all are deluded and slaves to government, among a plethora of other faults, right?

Sure. But where this fails as a parallel situation is that the situation is not at all parallel. We think the dimwits who poorly understand the consequences of their (seemingly) reactionary choices are destructive. And they are. They think government is the tool of Satan, that black men can't govern and that rugged individualism is what makes a country strong. And none of that is true.
