Why the US government is always shutting down

When a trash can gets full and there’s a government shutdown,
people don’t stop throwing stuff on top of it.
But I did manage to pick up a couple truckloads of trash before I was told:
“Don’t do it anymore.”
People were not even able to volunteer during the government shutdown.
"Stop the shutdown, stop the shutdown!"
The US is the only country in the world where the government can actually shut down.
And the threat looms nearly every year.
"Seven days until shut down—"
"Four days—"
"T-minus six days—"
"Five days—"
"Government shutdown at midnight tonight."
I just feel my gut in my chest - like, ugh, not again.
So, why does the US even shut down?
And what happens when it does?
“You travel 3,500 miles to America and find that they shut down!”
Every government in the world has to do the same thing:
decide how to spend the country’s money.
In the US, they do that by passing spending bills,
called appropriations bills,
that give these federal agencies their budgets.
It happens every year — or every fiscal year.
Japan is April 1st.
In Kenya, it's July 1st.
In the US, it’s October 1st.
And if the government misses that deadline...
The budget wasn't passed.
We have no money.
And then, "Oh, you have to come to work anyway."
Just not getting paid.
