Relevant this week:

- GPS costs around $2B/yr to continue operating

- Most of this comes from the defense budget

- This year, because of shenanigans, the NDAA has _not_ yet been passed b/c there are significant and controversial amendments in the House version

- We're careening towards a government shutdown

I'm not saying this _will_ happen, or _should_ happen ... but if GPS went off with the rest of the government, would Congress reach a resolution faster?
