Wow, there are some days that I should not be allowed on Facebook. The friends I have... I love them all, really I do. But there are times when I just want to let it all out, tell them to quit whining, stop posting every thought that enters your brain, Hello! OpSec!, nobody cares, and things like that!

Today was clearly one of those days. But I am proud of myself. I did not post a single nasty comment, and I refrained from being agressive... On Facebook! Hey, this is my blog, people. I can rant and complain all I want on here!

So yeah, the government and money. What's that all about?! I am quite perturbed about all that. Not just now. Everyone is mad and talking about it now. But where were you a few months ago when this all really went down? Watching your crap reality tv and not giving a damn about the world, that's where...

For those that have absolutely no idea what I am talking about... Our government is currently running on a two week budget system. Every two weeks, they agree for the sake of passing something that is good for two weeks. This has been going on for quite a while. We are talking months. Well, it has gotten to the point that they are talking massive shutdowns.

And the reason people are finally waking up to it, the people around me, is because the military will be affected. That's right. The men and women that fight for our country's freedom might not get paid. If the budget isn't fixed, the 'green suiters' will still go to work and protect our great nation. But this crappy, competetitive, overpaid government will not pay them.

Uhm, but the elected officials, the senators and representatives and governers, all those people that roll in an impressive paycheck? Yeah, I haven't heard about their pay stopping. Have you?

I love my country, almost to a fault. I truly believe that there is no nation on this Earth that is better than the United States of America. And yet, I get to see first hand how horrible we have let the politicians make us. Kills me...
