How to fix the Government Shutdown.

How a Debt-Ceiling Crisis Could Become a Financial Crisis - NYTimes.com:

"That means that unless Congress raises the debt ceiling, allowing the Treasury to issue new debt, the United States may find itself unable to make all of its payments — stiffing government contractors, or state and local governments, or even its bondholders."

I think the Treasury could fix it pretty quick by "stiffing" the states who's representatives in the house pushed us into this. No Fed money for any state with a Tea-Bagger rep. Extortion can work both ways.
