How much money do these employee make that they are living from paycheck to paycheck? They living way behind their means or what? I've never met a government employee that didn't make way too much money to do way too little. These cry babies need to go get a real job.

They do what they were hired to do

they have a real job

Your opinion on what is a valid or respectable job/career and what isn't doesn't matter. They did their part and are continuing to do so in many cases they are owed their money

I just can't afford my damn taxes. Or student loans for that matter.

I keep telling my wife we make too much money for turbotax lol. Between us we are making 45k more than last year.

Mo money mo problems lol.

Still feel broke AF.

Are they entitled to their money owed for services rendered? Yes

Are they not in large overpaid, inefficient people who couldn't cut it in an environment based on merit and are only have a job enabled via a corrupt system? Also yes.

some of these employees might be fresh out of college/university etc

couldn't start a savings

so what are you actually saying? Do you support the government shutdown?

I am saying what I wrote 2 posts ago. Not sure if I support the shutdown or not if the end result was people noticing how little work the government does with the enormous amounts of dollars they tax and axing half of it, that would be nice.
