The shutdown should raise different issues to discuss. Should government be so intrusive into private affairs where a shutdown becomes monumental. Should the people consider privatizing government services, shutting down agencies, bureaus and departments. Should unethical foreign wars and occupations (bases ) be ended and closed to at least use the same resources domestically in an event of a congressional deadlock. Additionally, should government return tax money to taxpayers for services not rendered (as a private company loses revenue during a temporary closure). By such discussions and possible outcomes, government shutdowns could be inconsequential.
Instead, everyone (among the citizenry) is playing the same political game as those in Washington. For at the end of the day, everyone wants to control everyone else's resources (ie. properties, possessions, profits, portfolios, pocketbooks, etc), accusing the latter's rightful ownership as greedy while ignoring their confiscation (via laws, regulations, taxes) as covetousness.
Come let us Reason (Is 1:18). Peace is always a Choice (Mt 5:9).
