[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With the fiscal problems facing the country, it would be a galactically stupid thing to do.  Even if tinyamount we do not need to add to the national debt.[/quote]

actually the reason for this given day off is to save the government money.  most people, not all, will be on leave.  as such the ones who are not have to come to work.  means lights must be turned on, water used in the buildings, trash guys taking out trash all the normal daily routines except with less people to be there.  it cost the same as a day with no one on leave but for no gain as the work loads are more trivial at best, but they have to be there because they dont have the leave.

president gives the day off at just 1 instalation and likely saves tax payers $10,000.  now do that for every work place and your talking in the millions of dollars he has cut off from being spent.  just by giving everyone a day off.[/quote]

This logic is incredibly bad. Do you really think that the cost of paying the entire federal workforce for a day in which there is zero productivity is cheaper than a day's worth of lights and HVAC?[/quote]
