1. What impact does the government shut down have on your?
I wouldn't say that is has that big on an affect on me. I don't know anyone that works in the government. I'm sure that for the people that work there, it is very hard for since they can't work
2. Tell me what you have heard your parents, family members, friends say about the government shut down?
Honestly, I haven't heard anything about the government shut down. I live with my mom and two brothers and none of us are very into politics, until election time comes around. From what I can gather though, it does not seem to be a very positive thing.
3. Does what you hear sway your opinion about the leadership of our country? What do you think about our leaders, our president, and the government in general?
Since, previous to right now, I haven't heard anything about it, I would have to answer with a no. I don't know very much about politics and am still very young so I don't have that big of an opinion of what is going on. Our government and president don't seem able to get it together and make the import decisions that need to be made.
4. Has it changed since the shut down has actually happened? Why or Why not?
Having just heard abut it, I would say no or at least not drastically. Its hard to have an opinion when your not complety sure whats going on. That being said, I think the movement shutting down can't be a very good thing either.
