Congress hasn’t passed a real budget in 30 years: Analysis

Chet Love, a Republican commentator and managing partner at Cornerstone Group, joins Al Jazeera live from Washington. He says the US government system is 'broken,' blaming both parties for repeated shutdowns and the failure to pass a proper budget. Love argues that Congress members shouldn’t be paid during shutdowns and criticizes Democrats for pushing health care spending without proper funding. He adds that Republicans are focused on lowering energy costs and that the current state of US politics suffers from 'entrenched leadership and gerrymandering.'
