The recent U.S government shutdown is now affecting businesses. With the current situation where the government will need to let go of 3,000 employees, the problem continues as the Penny Pritzker, US Commerce Secretary had just stated that more workers will need to be let go for the government to be running again. And this not only affects the US, as it is starting to affect others business. With the current situation, businesses are in the U.S can potentially go into bankruptcy, and individuals who were planning o start business could have no chance of starting them now.

Personally, this has not affected me personally just yet, however it made me think about my opportunities. If I were to graduate and decide to work. Should I be willing to work in the U.S? This is an important question as if the current situation in the U.S starts to worsen, working or even having a business in the U.S could potentially lead to negative consequences for me as an individual as the U.S is currently economically unstable. My question now is, is it worth it to work in the US, and will it be economically safe for me in the future?
