Did they stop social security, Medicare, or Medicare? What will happen when I pay federal taxes?

      What a funny coinkydink for it to go down at the exact same time they ordered a "stop all the payments!" directive!

        I think economic and social life in the United States will continue.

          Economic and social life existed during the Great Depression, but that needn't make it a goal.

            Well this just confirms this is hyperbole. Auditing and cutting federal agencies is not going to cause a Great Depression

              Where'd you get your economics degree from?

                Is that what the economic community is saying will happen? Would you listen to me if you found out I had one?
