It should be mandated in the Constitution that every time the Government shuts down (partial or otherwise) the Legislative and Executive Branches should have to work for free until there is a resolution. 

I will say the article linked appears to try to place this on only one branch. As I've said from jump: Once Congress agrees upon a resolution; this shutdown lies solely on them. Once POTUS vetoes a resolution then it's on him. 

Yawn.

Congress passed a CR that the POTUS decided not to sign after it was passed because he's weak and doesn't want his right wing media friends criticizing him.

The GOP in the house proved to be even weaker by falling on their knees and passing a resolution that had no chance of even getting a vote in the senate.
