[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a GS-14, my husband is a contractor, we could afford several weeks of shutdown. It would hurt (bad) but we could. But, see, it's not about me. It's about my GS-7 secretary who went on food stamps in 1996 during the last shutdown. It's my GS-12 staff member who has two kids in college and is living pay check to paycheck to pay for those kids. It's the thousands of hardworking Feds who are trapped in this political game between a bunch of rich, old white men (mostly). [/quote] This. Absolutely, this. We are fine (not great - and our savings will get touched, which sucks) but not the people at lower levels.[/quote]
