I don’t know- what would you do if your paycheck was cut to maybe 20% of normal?

Maybe a lot of them will go hungry and stop paying their bills, and not show up for work at all

This is nothing to gloat about

Yeah, we shouldn’t gloat. All of our overseers should be very generously compensated by money extracted from us by force. Fair is fair.

I support it in the sense that I’d support a furlough - a temporary move to force the hand of the legislature.

However, many government workers (state and Fed) are good hard workers just trying to make a living like the rest of us. There is a large chunk that just shows up for a paycheck and doesn’t contribute much - THOSE should ultimately be shaved off the payroll, but don’t punish everyone.

Yes actually it is ... to hell with the government workers (except the military) .

Like anyone will miss these people. They all just sit on their lazy a$$es all day anyway!

OK I know a few do ALL the work and the rest just sit around collecting a check. Bloated bureaucracy.

Was not gloating. Just curious and speculative.
