[quote=Anonymous]The muted reactions are two-fold. 1) During the recession, when everywhere else in the country was in dire straits, DC was booming. There is little room for pity for DC losing a couple weeks worth of salary when their situations were much, much worse for years. 2) Except for a few areas of the country with a large number of feds (talking like CDC in Atlanta, big IRS centers, etc), DC might as well be a foreign country. Yes they read the headlines but what goes on here is so distant. So I don't blame the kind of "meh" reaction. We here are all unique vested in it, others are not.[/quote]
