Poor baby. Save some of your tears for when the SS checks stop.

"Of course not; it requires everybody to lock up, turn off the lights, and go home.

Not a shutdown of the type we are currently having. "

Bullshit; everything. There has not been one single appropriations bill passed. If you don't like the consequences, don't shut it down. If you do like the consequences, don't cry about them.

"Both sides are shutting down government"

Nope; not both sides, and not even both houses. The senate voted something like 79-19 to fund it.
