Doing A Federal Shutdown The Right Way

If I were God of the universe this is the way I'd like to see the federal shutdown work. All salaries (with no make up pay) and transportation expenses be cut off for the president and all members of congress. This means no limos. No AF#1. The capital building gym closed. No nothing including their precious TV, magazine and newspaper interviews. Ignore them till they get the job done.

I tend to think that's all it would take. If not how about a fine or impeachment after a certain number of days for members of congress failing to do their jobs? After all isn't that what our employers would do to us if we failed to do ours? No pain. No gain.
The problem is they no longer take shutdowns seriously. Since they themselves are unaffected they have no skin in the game. I'd bet things would change real quick if they did.

Of course this will never happen since they get to set the rules of the game. But wouldn't it have been nice if our founders had put it into the constitution? Course they never could have imagined leaders one day could wield such financial power over citizens.
