Wow, just, wow.* That's a lot of money to lose because lawmakers can't get a budget together. $1.3 million a day in tax revenue alone.* So when people talk about the risk of an investment, things like the government shutting down their biggest revenue makers probably doesn't get factored in too often!* :P

You would think that a couple Jersey wise guys with paper bags of cash could fix this problem before nightfall.
Around here you can still start a fistfight by mentioning a combative governor who in 2001 dared the public school teachers to start a strike. That was pretty expensive too.
Remember when Newt Gingrich took the hit for shutting down the federal govt in 1996?
