Entente sur le budget: un "goverment shutdown" le 8 avril?

On ne pourra étirer le débat encore bien longtemps... Bel article dans le Huffington post sur ce qu'implique un échec des négociations au Congrès.

"An extended federal government shutdown could devastate the U.S. economy by dealing a blow to Americans' confidence, experts said Tuesday.

If lawmakers cannot reach agreement on a bill to fund the government by April 8, a broad array of federal programs will come to a halt. Although most shutdown plans remain classified, during the last major federal government shutdown in 1995, certain health services were shut down. Court cases were delayed. And federal workers were furloughed. This time around, some fear low-income families will miss crucial government payments. But there is another consequence that could make all of those challenges far worse: The economy could slip back into recession."
