I've seen so much stuff on what it means and how it affects people but I can't find anything on the reason behind why anyone wants to shut down the government

I would note that the USA is about the only place this is actually possible.
In pretty much all other democracies, if the parliament fails to pass the budget bill, it triggers a dissolution of both houses and an election is held.
We need that in the USA too
I agree but when was the last time a politician (either singly or as a party) voted to restrict their behaviour and power?
I feel like you guys would just end up in a constant election cycle
We already are.
