Message | Congress, What a bizarre notion. The term 'government shutdown' has absolutely no clarification and thus we are left questioning whether this will be done by force or other such ways. A government shutdown means that anarchy could effectively rule the streets and I thus urge the Block Bloc to stop this attempt to overthrow the government, albeit by, what we believe, could be, potentially, democratic means.
