Apparently, it is up to the Prez to determine which govt personnel are
"essential" to get paid and Clinton paid the military during the '95

required to work for possible pay later. Basically, Obama has decided
to make them work as slaves without compensation. DOES THIS SURPRISE
ANYBODY? Statists, regardless of what they claim, all believe in
slavery to the state. For Obama, "L'etat et Moi"


No government employees have lost a dime in these shutdowns. If they
get a check, the check might be late but if it is a bank transfer it
will probably be right on time. They have always been given their back
pay, even though most stay home.

Think about that while you are locked out of the Smithsonian ... you
are still paying these people, to stay home.


A shutdown because Boehner doesn't have the backbone to stand up to the
teahadists. :)

Hey what is he going to do? Print more money?

Hahaha... you don't know how screwed up US currency mismanagement is.
Even though as I write the currency has been dropping value almost daily.

yep. we have a more laissez faire economy than you do. we have less
regulation than you do

our rich can do things to **** the economy that your rich guys cant


Your screwed no mater what. Short of a $1.6 trillion reduction in
spending plan starting right now, US currency is toast.
