Sorry to break it to you, but this is about much more than Feds getting paid. It’s about national security for goodness sake!


You mean when TSA agents aren’t getting paid it’s a national security issue. I agree.


Let them call in sick or walk off the job. We can train enlisted military to run people through body scanners and metal detectors. NBD.

I don’t think it matters if the wall is made of concrete or steel, Dems are not going for it. I do think it will end this week, but only bc GOP is going start facing more pressure particularly as tax season approaches.

Federal bureaucrats are people in ivory towers who are NOT necessarily SMEs and they are beholden to a pay check and an agenda set forth by management in those federal departments. Those managers do not change from administration to administration. You understand what I'm telling you? A few at the top change and that's about it. Thus we get 3000 page bills that have all sorts of stuff packed (hidden) in them and referring to other documents that are virually impossible to trace. The federal register is far too big and far to damaging to everyday people.

We were never meant to be RULED by career politicians and bureaucrats. They were supposed to come to DC a couple of months out of the year and then go back home FFS. This federal leviathan is like a kingdom on steroids and has been since FDR.


Dear idiot,

Those 3000 page bills come Congress, not agencies. Congress is the elected body that passes legislation in the United States. You should watch that Schoolhouse Rock video about how a bill becomes a law.

Love,

Non-idiot


Shit. They don't even read it. You're telling me they write it? No.

Thousands of UNELECTED bureaucrats at federal agencies churn out blather all day. They get paid by the number of trees they kill.

I agree. Pelosi is passing individual bills, per agency.

Good luck with Rs voting against delaying tax returns and farm subsidies.


Agree.

So now the shutdown isn't over the wall, but because the GOP is literally the snowflake party
