Affected by Government Shutdown?

Obamacare hasn't even been fully implemented yet, which means they don't have a measurable counterargument on why it doesn't work. In any case, right now they're basically saying, take away health care for millions or else hundreds of thousands will be unemployed for 3-4 weeks or more. That's a terrible gamble especially when they'll have no problem receiving their paychecks or medical coverage while all of this is going on.
