How big of a hit did the US economy take?
The resolution has evolved but what is the US economy left to deal with?
The threat of a debt-limit crisis certainly left behind some catastrophe for Americans to sort out in the future. Is it over yet? Most definitely not. The shutdown posed a huge threat to people all over the world and left thousands of empoloyees all over the world jobless. It jeapordised the lives of many, as politicians bitterly disagreed about raising the debt-ceiling. The on-going dispute about Obamacare still remains evident, yet we can argue that the Republicans still and could not have won their way through this battle.
Depsite the Government shutting down Obamacare was launched. Federal services were closed and confidence was shattered as the country feared that they would be driven into a default. Economic growth was stalled, and the Mail Online continue to point out many suspicious threats weighted upon Americans. They somehow point this out crucially online that the US political breakdown is not over yet, and many should still remain dubious.
Has their startling reputation been damaged? Debatable.
The government shutdown and flirtation with default have dealt a severe and entirely avoidable blow to America’s reputation around the world while harming economic growth and job creation
This is a common Mail Online Right Wing perspective in comparison to that of the Guardian where they focus on negatives rather than the positive sides. Something that the general public should be made aware of. Something American citizens and workers and investors all over the world should be knowledgeable about. Definitely a shift away from Modernism.
The start date of the shutdown was on the 1st of October and re-opened on the 17th. A serious deadline was approaching as the parties were forced to make a compulsory decision. Dents to economical growth is likely as the whole event will more than likely hold a domino effect upon thousands of tax payers.
Alternatively, the Mail Online do sum up their ideas on a more enlightened note. The main point of the story is that, thankfully, the US didn’t result in a recession. The long haul vision though, still remains as an ongoing discussion which is yet to be negotiated by both sides by mid-January.
That risk is now off the table, at least for now.
Emphasised risks are apparent. This is just something they like to keep their readership informed about.
Of course it’s vital that their audience are aware of political harm that can and more than likely will affect them. Not being the only point – many tourists were affected by the shutdown of many US attractions, as various tweets emphasize.
Operations are back in working order now as the US begin to recover from their ‘unexpected’ stalemate position, they could shatter again if a permanent resolution isn’t agreed upon.
