Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross says he doesn't "really quite understand why" federal workers who have missed paychecks due to the partial government shutdown don't just take out loans to cover the gap.
When asked in a CNBC interview on Thursday about reports that federal workers are going to homeless shelters or seeking food assistance, the billionaire investor said: "Well, I know they are and I don't really quite understand why, because as I mentioned before, the obligations that they would undertake, say borrowing from a bank or a credit union, are in effect federally guaranteed, so the 30 days of pay that some people will be out is no real reason why they shouldn't be able to get a loan against it."
If you think either of the parties care about us, you're an idiot. We're less than pawns for their political games.

But, they will be happy to lend you money. :lamo
You just cannot make this **** up. No one would believe it.

He’s not wrong. It’s actually quite sickening these federal workers live off of the taxpayer and instead of using their savings or getting another job they take food meant for the needy

Uh, they have jobs. Are you suggesting all furloughed workers quit?
Now, that would be Trumpian.

If those federal workers took your advice and got another job instead of taking taxpayer money, every airport in America would shut down. How do you think that would affect the economy?
If I could fire federal employees myself I’d can 90% of them
Most of their functions can be assumed by state governments or privatized
Well sure if that’s how you define banana republic then keep the bananas coming. If we were turned into an absolutely monarchy with King Donald I I’d be perfectly happy since he’s so far doing a good job governing despite the totally crap allegations he’s being subjected to
They advertised Credit Unions nationwide willing to give interest free loans to federal employees. So he is correct.Wilbur Ross doesn't 'quite understand' why furloughed workers are going to homeless shelters to get food

Temporarily, it would cause such a disruption that the airlines would demand security and air traffic control be privatized. There’s no reason air carriers can’t fund ATC themselves, Canada already does this with user fees paid by pilots and carriers. Airports can hire their own security, the US government only needs to provide customs officers for those airports with international flights

You spend to much time in conspiracy theories. They're rotting your brain.And you think that they'll be willing to do that again for the next seventeen shutdowns Trump has planned, or for the duration of the even bigger "NATIONAL EMERGENCY" that will happen once a few airplanes crash and trigger a brand new 9/11 of President Stephen Miller's own design?
Or do you realize that this might just be a one-off and they're probably going to cap the number of employees who can take advantage once they realize it's going to be a tsunami of them applying in another few weeks?
Even credit unions cannot overextend themselves, they're not even allowed to as much as banks are.
It is absolutely incredible the lengths to which people like you will go to NORMALIZE Trump's shutdown.

Just when someone make shat up, has no evidence, and then uses that strawman to justify their crazy thoughts.That is YOUR stock answer when someone takes away your Milk Bones.
WOOF.

You don't want errant aircraft wandering around willy nilly when there's five thousand of them aloft at any given moment.
Without enough ATC resources, already stretched to the limit before the shut-show, those errant aircraft tend to start behaving more like errant Russian space junk, trajectory-wise.
You just never know where one of them might end up.
Oh wait, did I just give away Donald Trump's secret plan, something to do with errant airplanes crashing into something?
Ohhhhhhh SNAP!!!!
