The clock is ticking and does it really matter whose fault it is?

Ok, so if you were to turn on the news right now, chances are you will see a little countdown clock. This clock is counting down to the government shutdown. Right now, the senate/house, whatever, is trying to make sure this shutdown doesn't happen. A government shutdown isn't a good thing and if it happens the message it will send won't get through to the politicians. No if the shutdown happens the politicians will be too busy arguing about who started/ caused it and nothing will get fixed or realized. Fox News currently has a poll asking the people who's fault it is. Naturally, people blame the president the most. Though there is a small percent that blame either the house or senate, or all three. Personally, I believe that everyone played a part in this so they all share the blame. Which brings us to this point, does it really matter who is to blame? As kids, weren't we always told that it didn't matter whose fault it was but to suck it up and fix the problem? Ok maybe not necessarily using the term suck it up, but still. It shouldn't matter whose fault it is but how they will fix it? All that the politicians are doing is trying to talk over one another so nothing is getting solved. So I leave you with this, who do you think is at fault and does it really matter?
