Ruining the holidays for a bunch of government employees, not just TSA. I am more worried about air traffic controllers, NASA, NOAA, FDA, the VA (yeah they suck, but a lot of people depend on them and making them work unpaid is definitely not going to improve anything), and thousands of other government employees that will go without pay. The longer it lasts, the worse it will be for the economy.
Damn. Imagine just showing up to work knowing you won't be paid, with a bunch of other coworkers who are in the exact same socio-economic hostage crisis.
Gotta wonder if there's some kind of organizational remedy. Like... a collection of workers who could all respond together as a single labor unit to demand a different set of policies on pain of withholding their labor until their demands are met.
I've heard of these! They're called onions!
Like an ogre, they have layers.
