Jinse Finance reported that on October 4th local time, the U.S. federal government "shutdown" entered its fourth day, and the American public is increasingly disappointed by the various farces caused by partisan disputes. According to the website of The New York Times, a recent poll conducted by The New York Times shows that Americans' confidence in the ability of the U.S. political system to solve problems is continuously declining. Only 33% of Americans believe that the United States is capable of solving its political issues, and most Americans now think that the country is unable to overcome its deep internal divisions. This poll also reflects Americans' serious doubts about the U.S. political system. 41% of Americans said they do not agree that the United States is a democratic country. In interviews with reporters from China Media Group, American citizens stated that their lives have already begun to be affected by the government "shutdown," and that the rivalry between the two parties has resulted in ordinary people becoming the ultimate victims.
