My impression is that contrary to the headline, this isn't a young vs old thing, but a follows-the-news vs doesn't-follow-news thing

Every major gov shutdown I remember was the Republicans being bastards to force something they wanted or to make Democrats look bad. 20 years. The entire time I've paid attention. It's always been Republicans. This is a legitimate reason for once for democrats to do it. To fight this dismantling of government. They won't. They're useless. They want this. May anyone who tell me to vote have their nose broken. I've voted in every election since I turned 18. Even locals. There isn't a systemic fix to this. No one is going to save you. Stop looking to your government leaders and start forming extra governmental solutions.
