America’s government is currently shut down.

This seems problematic, and it is. How can the US find a way to battle its massive debt, when it is not even able to resolve a dispute as simple as Obamacare? Albeit, Obamacare is complex, but it is insignificant in light of what is coming towards the end of October; the national debt ceiling. In America, it seems more important to argue over the costs of providing healthcare than actually providing affordable healthcare. I find the economic crisis in America very frustrating, considering how little actually gets done. The spending simply needs to decline, because the more we spend the richer we are making China (16.7 Trillion $ so far.) At what point is this going to become apparent to America? Soon, I hope, because it is only making more of a mess for itself.

The American Government needs a new perspective, one that can refresh the mundane bickering that the Political scene has fallen victim to. The American government needs to at least put food on the tables of all its people (46m of which are under the poverty line) with the borrowed money, not spend it on lost causes like the maintenance of a White House that is currently shut down by its own incompetence.

Please America,

• Stop putting yourself into more debt
• Fix the issue of widespread poverty

And Democrats and Republicans, stop being winy. Being productive is a much more rewarding pursuit.
