The Instapundit observes: "Where were they when coal miners lost their jobs?" https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/318784/

Thinking the same thing

20 years of plant closings all over the country, nobody cared about those people

But if you are some dork who move paper from bin A to bin B, everyone wants to make sure you are comfortable.

Strange

[Rusty0604]

Exactly.

[meadsjn]

For 19 years, the treasonous scumbags of both parties have been bringing in H1B, L1, and other visa workers to displace educated IT and engineering people by the millions.

I don't recall anyone providing free food for any of those displaced American citizens during all those years.

F'em all.

This is just a phony marketing campaign now. They want to take advantage of the Shutdown. Next Gillette will give away free razors that they can’t sell.

[MtnClimber]

The left is taking care of their unskilled, permanent dependent underclass that always vote 'RAT and live their parasitic lives at the expense of the rest of society.

Great question by Instapundit.

[Baynative]

Federal workers are not 'unpaid'. Their pay has been suspended and they can get immediate NO INTEREST loans at federal credit unions.

Of note - benefits to illegals is not suspended.

[TonyM]

So, they will get backpay when shut down is over (a very long free paid vacation) and free groceries while on the paid vacation. What a deal.

I hope they wind up being permanently furloughed.

Why doesnt Kraft docthis for every worker who loses their jobs?

Fedgov employees have some of the sweetest deals when it comes to job security, back pay, very difficult to actually fire, pensions, salaries, salary increase schedules,...

Where is Kraft for the workers who have have far worse deals?

[Secret Agent Man]

Guess now I am going to stop buying kraft crap too.

[georgiegirl]

Isn’t Heinz owned by John Kerry’s wife?

[Kickass Conservative]

This is what happens when Minimum Wage Employees...

Oh wait...

[onona]

Never in a million years would I have thought I would see soup kitchens for federal workers.

[RegulatorCountry]

Wow, such showy displays of largesse. I don’t recall anything even remotely similar while the private sector was being decimated again and again and again over the past 25 years.

Why does Kraft hate us? /SJW logic

[DoughtyOne]

These government workers make 1.5 to 2.0 times what their private sector counterparts make. They knew a shut-down was on the table. I plan ahead in my household. Why didn’t they?

We’re two weeks into this shutdown, and it sounds as if all these people are losing their homes and starving.

If they’re that dumb, good!

Now several entities are loaning them interest free money or helping find them food as if they are homeless or something.

What a load of manure...

[CapnJack]

Hey! It’s FUNEMPLOYMENT ... remember.

That’s what the rats called it when Obummer was pres.

Lets all call it Federal Funemployment from now on. These people are free to chase their passions, do what they always wanted to do like paint, go hiking, etc...

Isn’t that what they said about the rest of us 7 or so years ago?

[wetgundog]

Hope they choke on their Mac and Cheese.

Ever wonder exactly how deep into the federal trough Kraft has its snout? Kraft and hundreds of others I’d suppose?

[simpson96]

Thanks for posting. Sick and tired of stuff like this. Funny how Kraft only “cares’ when it’s Trump in office. Kraft products will stay on the shelves when I go grocery shopping.
