Wake upand pay attention to Richards post instead of blabbing off
like a verbal jackhammer.

“Make it hurt”


There was nothing in Richard's post but a plea to support his president
and party. The solution is theirs and is well-known. Too bad the "Great
Dealmaker" is playing solitaire, eh?

Sometimes in dealmaking, you push back from the table and let the other
side dangle while they hang themselves. The Dems already have the
noose around their own neck.

If the Dems shut down the gov, it will be readily apparent to everyone
that it is on them. Even the liberal MSM is already saying it.

It would be interesting if Trump just said "OK the government is shut
down but the parks will stay open". Do a Harry Truman, tell the NPS
they are now in the army and pay them as "essential" DoD people. I bet
nobody would care that the government was shut down then.
Maybe if he also said all of those AFGE people were not going to get
paid for the days they stayed home, the democrat support for the shut
down would fade away pretty fast too.
The way these things have worked in the past is they do get to stay
home but their pay keeps coming.
It turns out it is harder to stop the automatic deposits than it is to
just let them go. This is the government. They don't actually need the
money to spend it. If they did, the whole government would have shut
down decades ago.

I don't know... they don't seem to have a problem recalling direct deposited money.

When my dad passed, I reported it to SS, but they didn't get the
paperwork done in time and a SS check was direct deposited for the next
month. Later I got a letter showing that they had reached into that
account and withdrawn the amount they deposited without my OK to do so.
It's OK, it's a check he shouldn't have gotten, but there seems to be no
problem with the gov taking what they want.


They actually tell you to leave the account open a couple months for just
this case. Course they do not seem to care they are paying monthly checks
to a couple hundred people over 116 years old.
