As the deadline approached, Ramaswamy didn&#8217;t hold\u200d back in expressing his views.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;First, I want to say\u200d about the government shutdown debate broadly, I think it\u2019s a fake and artificial debate \u2064if we\u2019re being \u200dhonest about it,&#8221; Ramaswamy said. &#8220;What happens every time? The government comes back, all the employees get their back pay,\u2064 and generally, the government comes back bigger\u200c every time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Ramaswamy&#8217;s bold\u2062 statements didn&#8217;t stop \u2062there.

This includes\u200d shutting down major agencies such as the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the U.S. Department of Education, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, \u200cand the Department of Agriculture&#8217;s Food and Nutrition Services.<\/p>\n<p>At just 37 years old, Ramaswamy is the youngest contender in the race for the GOP presidential nomination.

In \u200ca bold move, Ramaswamy didn&#8217;t shy away from expressing his views \u2063on the ongoing debate surrounding government funding.<\/p>\n<p>During the show, Ramaswamy declared, &#8220;First, I want to say about the government shutdown debate\u200b broadly, I\u2062 think it\u2019s a fake\u2063 and artificial debate if \u200dwe\u2019re being honest about it.

The government comes back, all the employees get their back\u200d pay,\u200c and \u200bgenerally, the government comes back bigger every time.&#8221;\u2063 With this statement, Ramaswamy questioned the significance of \u200dthe debate, suggesting that it \u200dmay not be as significant \u2062as it is portrayed.<\/p>\n<p>However, Ramaswamy&#8217;s remarks didn&#8217;t end with his critique of the government shutdown debate. As part of his campaign promises, he has pledged to\u2062 reduce the federal workforce \u200cby a staggering 75%. This plan includes shutting \u2063down major agencies\u2063 such as the \u200bFBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the U.S. Department of Education, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and the\u200b Department of\u2063 Agriculture&#8217;s Food and\u2062 Nutrition \u200bServices.
