Suspend pay and benefits for all government officials responsible for the recent shutdown, and remove them from office.

Our tax dollars should not be wasted on OUR employees when they decide to strike. Their tantrum should not allow them a paid vacation or ANY benefits at the expense of the American people; therefore, pay and benefits should cease NOW. All members of government who are a party to the current shutdown are insubordinate to the people they serve, and should be relieved of duty immediately.
