shut down the US Government and cost us a billion dollars in lost productivity

I agree with most of whay you say.  I think we end up with Hillary as Pres.  I do not like that but the course we are on.  I do not agree with the above statement.  What productivity did we lose?   I have worked in government.  There is waste, waste, entitlement, laziness, waste, union, me me, etc.   Yes, there are GREAT govt workers but we have too much.
