You can dance on the head of a pin all you want. I'm not aware of anyone who is advocating "stiffing our creditors" In fact, past temporary shutdowns have never resulted in the kind of catastrophic scenarios that the left always trots out. The bills get paid, the employees take some time off and then collect back pay, and after the smoke clears it's like nothing ever happened.

The fact of the matter is that were are NOT paying our bills. We're borrowing to pay those bills, and the debt increases yearly because we're using someone else's money to make ends meet while more debt is incurred.
