But if the RATS don't cooperate, then the gubermint stays partially shut down.
No more Global Warming catastrophe lies.
No more Demonrats hired to screw us in other ways.
Leave it partially shut down for months if it takes that long and watch the RATS squirm. Then they can all sit down together and in 45 minutes or less, it will all happen.
This is where the Federal Aviation Administration resides. Although much could be negatively discussed about this Institution, the fact that the efficiency of the air traffic in this country is a direct result of the 24/7 efforts of the Air Traffic Controllers might give pause in governmental discourse; to wit, what's gonna happen in a few weeks when these men and women have to leave their positions to get a paying job (re: food, mortgage, utilities, etc.?)
Or, the one fifth who are eligible will retire in order to get a paycheck? I hope the country sees that Nanci and Chuck are responsible for the shut down of our air traffic system.
