Why can’t a government shutdown also shut down the military? That would be fantastic.

A not insignificant portion of our armed forces get such crappy pay they use food stamps. Are you suggesting we stop the paychecks of people who use gov’t assistance and legally may not take secondary employment without specific approval?

Shutting down the military also means denying those people access to health care. For them *and* their families. There are those who join because it is the only way they can afford the coverage their families need.
