Me: "US" CA: "Purpose for coming to Canada?" Me: "Bingo and Chinese food." CA: "Have a nice time!" You want the Canadians to relax their border questioning?

Tiberius Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/17/government-shutdown-recession-economy-1092089 Recession worries pile up! Oh my, if this jack ass kicks out the last prop holding up his rotten presidency, he is in enormous trouble. Quote The partial government shutdown was supposed to be a brief non-event for the economy. Now it’s starting to look like a serious crisis that could nudge the U.S. toward recession and threaten President Donald Trump's economic message during his reelection campaign. Across Wall Street, analysts are rushing out warnings that missed federal paychecks, dormant government contractors and shelved corporate stock offerings could push first-quarter growth close to or even below zero if the shutdown, which is wrapping up its fourth week, drags on much longer.
