美政府“停摆”已超半月孕育“新历史纪录” 两党却还斗得火热

Group 1 - The U.S. government shutdown has lasted for 16 days, with the potential to become the second longest in history if it continues beyond 17 days [4][6][11] - The shutdown has led to the freezing or cancellation of funding for over 200 projects across the U.S., totaling nearly $28 billion, primarily affecting Democratic-led states and cities [11][12] - The delay in key economic data releases, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and employment statistics, is expected to adversely impact decision-making by the Federal Reserve and other institutions [13][15][17] Group 2 - The ongoing shutdown is causing significant economic losses, estimated at approximately $15 billion per day, raising concerns about the overall economic impact [15][17] - The lack of reliable government data is creating a "data blackout," complicating policy-making for other countries that rely on U.S. economic indicators [18][20] - The situation is leading to doubts about the U.S. government's ability to govern effectively and maintain the reliability of its economic data, which could weaken the dollar's position globally [20][23]
