The shutdown cost the US $24,000,000,000 in lost growth and retarded GDP growth by 0.6%. Say the liberal pinko commies that make up Standard and Poors.
The 9/11 attacks trimmed $500,000,000,000 from the GDP, so better luck next time, you neo-confederate asshats.
UPDATE: Jon Chait's sentence offered without context:
We are pretty far from okay, but it beats spending the rest of your life getting raped in a dungeon, which is more or less what the House Republicans had planned.
