US budget shutdown tomorrow?

I know most Americans are following the issue over the fiscal budget and hoping that something will be agreed upon before tomorrow.  Our government has not even signed a back up plan that would go into affect if nothing is agreed upon.  BBC news has introduced an article that notes Obama has stated that a potential US government shutdown is "entirely avoidable; " however, he has criticized Republicans for trying to fight the budget in order to further delay his health care law.  "Republicans in the House of Representatives- and their allies in the Senate- have continuously demanded that [Obama's health care plan] be repealed or stripped of funding as a condition for continuing to fund the government. "  Either way major portions of the law were passed back in 2010 and will take effect on Tuesday even if there is a shutdown.  The shutdown they are describing would cause the close of all non-essential federal services at midnight and more than 700,000 federal government workers could be sent home on unpaid leave until this issue is resolved.  Although Obama seems very concerned for the well being of the federal workers, he along with fellow Democrats in the Senate say that they will reject any House bill that touches the health care law.  So there it is, the Republicans will do anything to make sure the health care law does not go into full effect and the Democrats will do anything to make sure Republicans cannot shoot it down and because of this complete lack of understanding or compromise we as a nation will have to see what happens tomorrow.
