So basically he says you can't come to work because we are short of money but we're going to pay you anyway?

He also shut down only the things that people like and that generate revenue.

Publicity stunt.

If he shut down the Department of Making Sure All The Union Thugs Have Comfortable Chairs, nobody would notice.
