As of Tuesday, the U.S. government has been out of office for 36 days — and counting. The federal shutdown just became the
longest in U.S. history, a record that no one wanted and that too many people saw coming. Seven hundred thousand government workers are either sitting at home or clocking in without pay, and the nation is discovering what happens when bureaucracy takes a slew of sick days. What began as a budget standoff has turned into a kind of slow-motion national crisis: paused paychecks, stalled food inspections, and airport lines stretching toward the horizon.

The agencies that keep the economy moving — the SEC, the FAA, and the rest of the alphabet — have gone silent, and the disruptions are stacking up like delayed flights. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned that parts of U.S. airspace could close before Thanksgiving to prevent “mass chaos,” as if that chaos hasn’t already been achieved. Analysts estimate the closure is bleeding roughly $30 billion in economic activity each week — damage that a former White House economist expects the economy will “snap back” from,
assuming it doesn’t linger long enough to crack consumer confidence.

Politics, of course, is the real traffic jam. Democrats are holding out for an extension of the Affordable Care Act subsidies that expire in December; Republicans and President Donald Trump have said they refuse to talk until the government’s lights are back on. But after Democrats’ big election wins this week — flipping governorships and eking out surprise wins — Trump privately conceded the obvious: “The shutdown
was a big factor, negative, for the Republicans.” Each day adds another notch to the record, another week to recover, and another reason for Americans to wonder whether the government still knows how to govern.

McDonald’s is growing. Its U.S. customer base isn’t. The burger giant’s latest quarter showed solid international gains and shrinking U.S. traffic, a reminder that corporate optimism can thrive even when the middle class can’t. Global comparable sales rose 3.6%, lifted by Germany, Australia, and Japan, while U.S. growth slowed to 2.4%, thanks mostly to higher prices (“positive check growth”) rather than higher turnout. Customers aren’t coming more often; they’re just paying more when they do. That’s a hard recipe to
scale when your core audience is already counting coins.

The company has been trying to repackage thrift as a choice. CEO Chris Kempczinski again praised “everyday value” and “menu innovation” — code for discounts and nostalgia — with the $5 Meal Deal and revived snack wraps doing the heavy lifting. Loyalty members helped, spending about $9 billion last quarter, but traffic among lower-income Americans continues to fall at a double-digit rate, and even free fries can’t fix the
feeling that fast food has gone premium. McDonald’s may not be able to afford to be McDonald’s.

Abroad, the arches still shine. Sales rose 4% to 5% across Europe and Asia, pushing global revenue to $7.1 billion and operating income up 5%. Wall Street rewarded the consistency — shares edged up roughly 2.2% on Wednesday — but the picture that’s emerging is a tense one. McDonald’s has become an accidental barometer of the American economy — a measure of how much comfort costs in a
country where even a McDouble is starting to feel like fine dining. The Golden Arches remain open for business, but fewer people can afford the combo.
