March 4th. It is an important date. I am sure most people do not know why. But that is the day the budget must be worked out by the keep running. It is a day I will be watching closely. It is sad that the government has not worked past the issue yet. I seem to remember the same thing happen to Clinton after he lost some votes in Congress. It is following the path closely. Obama should realize if there is a shutdown, he will get the blame. It is easier to blame one person than everyone in Congress. Something needs to be worked out though. A government shutdown does not save money. Most of the employees get back-pay once the doors open again. The lost productivity then has to be made up. I hope something gets worked out as well as an Increase in infrastructure spending gets passed.
