Let them eat whatever

As many furloughed government employees and out of work contract workers are finding out, the tRump administration does not have their backs.  From recommendations for having yard sales to what kind of second jobs might be available to actually speculating that the shutdown is good because workers can have time off without using vacation days tRump and his merry band of saboteurs are wrecking an infrastructure built over generations.  If this shutdown drags on, many of our best scientists, managers and workers will move on to other jobs.  When the issues which provoked this horror show are settled, there could literally be thousands of unfilled positions which will impact the economy in unknown ways.  Longer term, how many people will decide a lower paid government job with decent benefits and a steady paycheck is no longer a good career option.  The damage being done now will take many years to correct.
