Baby panda will die if government doesn't raise the debt ceiling

 

If Congress fails to fund the federal government by Oct. 1, the start of the new fiscal year, the government will go into partial shutdown. Some government functions – those deemed essential – will continue as usual, while others will be suspended. If a shutdown proceeds the way it would have in 2011 (had the last funding impasse had not been resolved in time), 800,000 of 2.1 million federal employees would be furloughed. Here is a list of what to expect if a shutdown takes place:

5. What will happen to the National Zoo's baby panda?

All the zoo's animals will still be fed and cared for, just not open to the public. The month-old baby panda is still nursing, but her mother, Mei Xiang, will of course be fed. The fate of Giant Panda Cam – the live video stream that allows obsessive panda-watchers to track mama and baby (while pretending to work) – is still up in the air. Volunteers run the video camera.

As The Washington Post points out, panda addicts will have to make do with the viral video of a baby panda sneezing.

The Top 10 Ridiculous Ways the Government Shutdown Will Affect You According to CNN

# 9. Celebrate! Seriously, this is #9 on the list. Here's what they said, "Don't come to work if you're a federal employee. You're on furlough. (Offer not valid for workers in 'critical services,' such as air traffic controllers, hazardous waste handlers and food inspectors.) Do take some time to celebrate. In previous shutdowns, everyone who stayed home was paid retroactively after peace returned to Washington". So, the shutdown is a good thing because millions of federal government employees get a free vacation that will be paid by Americans who will be paying for them to do nothing.

I hope the secret service feels free to join in on the vacation days
