Everyone that had or has the potential of being directly or downstream affected by lack of income has credit cards to cover the hole.
Back pay has already been voted on by both houses of congress and signed by the president. When the back pay comes in you pay down the credit cards. Been doing this since '71 so it's an old hat routine. Just eat the interest and service charges (if any if it's a short stay)
Quoting: tkwasny For the people that don't have credit cards, there is always unemployment checks. When they get their back pay, they can always pay the IRS back... Hell, they can always look for part time work too... No reason for them to be crying. People who work seasonal jobs go through this all the time and they don't get back pay... Small business owners live their entire lives going through periods of little or no pay as things ebb and flow. The enployees that work for them sometimes join them. In the real world a paycheck is never guaranteed. Only in Utopia government land is one paycheck miss the apocalypse. Honestly, let this be a lesson to these fucking idiots, how about saving your money next time when this shit happens. The average shutdown is less than two weeks long, or one pay period, and you get back pay. How irresponsible do you have to be financially and personally to work these cushy jobs with high pay and not at least save half a month of expenses away? Business owners save like squirrels because they have to deal with lean times and not end up in a cardboard box, everyone else has to account for job loss. Fuck these idiots.
