Default looks like MN is shutting down....

I don't folow politics but looks like MN goverment is shutting down alot of services tonight at midnight...

Judge orders most services to go dark | StarTribune.com


IMHO these people get paid WAY too much for what they do, the representatives and the govener wont come to a conclusion, i think alot of it has to do with the govener wan't to increase taxes on the states wealthiest people but o wait that will include the representatives so we all know they won't go for it.. ... if these goverment workers just took a pay cut(if i remember right there is some making 100k+) we wouldn't have such a budgit issues

I am pritty sure health care is one of the few things that they found Eseential and most of it is federally funded so it's not shutting down

unless she was a state employee... then she can apply for unemployment and medical assistance

She isn't. She told me she doesn't have health insurance anymore until further notice. Maybe she misunderstood.
