Government Shutdown Day 11: It's Over

As usual, the Republican leadership folded like a cheap suit.

The status quo will remain.

Sorry to have gotten all worked up about it the past few weeks. It's obvious that neither party wishes to change anything.

In 1492, Christopher Columbus discovered what would be known as the "New World." Turns out, it's been so plundered and beaten and exploited that now it looks just like the Old World, a feudal socialistic state which benefits old money and the oligarchy atop the human pyramid.

Good luck with that.
