Its happened in teh past, and I would be extremely careful about shopping on "lowest price" (ever wonder why the government is so screwed up - lowest bid, RFP's, poorest quality...).there are a lot of folks that know about one of the rent payment companies recommended above.

It also contains provisions to fund the federal government, so if not signed by Tuesday, the government shuts down.

The government is going to pay them "$x,xxx"; you want to charge them the max "$x,xxx".If you want less renters, then go for higher paying. 

I detest elitism and discrimination of any kind.Answer:TBH, I do not really care where your rental payment comes from, as long as you are not paying me with funds that could be taken by the government for some reason (you stole them from the bank, or not sure how the government would deem they could confiscate the funds, but as long as they're mine when you give them to me, I don't care where you got them.)This is a business, not a platform to make political statements. 

Until the government gets its act together and the debt gets under control it is not as friendly as other midwest states.

Environmentally, well, the Government is a big part of it when it comes about construction, permitting and regulations, etc. 

I got great tenants that work for the government.

@Bud Gaffney I'm a scientist with the federal government.

The house is up to code per the 2015 NEC which is what the state governs by.
