        @USATODAY when you have the government at 25% of GDP, WHICH WE DO, then possibly.

        @USATODAY No I don't think so but it should tell us how strong our economy really is & does the #shutdown #gov determine US economy?

        @USATODAY not necessarily a "economic shout down" but definitely will affect the US economy especially stock market…

        @USATODAY Optimism will drop if the #shutdown continues. More for US stocks, but global affect will be felt. #dailychat
