US Government Shutdown- It's Over!... For Now

[The Empire of Pretantia]

Because if they don't they get fired then they don't get paid.

I mean, if they all didn't show up then they couldn't fire all of them...

But if most of them show up the rest could be.

Organization is important to make this work.

They should at the very least show up to work and do nothing

Depends on the numbers. There is a point where it would be fiscal suicide to fire them. Even firing a third or half of the workers would be catastrophic to the functioning of the IRS.

Agreed they should all stop working until the shutdown is over., Its not like much would be affected. Taxes would still be collected.

Nearly 50000 IRS workers are being recalled to show up to work without pay to handle taxes. I think they should all refuse to show up. In fact the entire IRS should walk off the job until the shutdown ends. What would happen? Not much.

Weren't you the one complaining about the possible repercussions of a strike?

You think that not much would be effected? Tell that to the people who are expecting to get money back.

It is precisely because taxes will still be collected, but the reimbursements will not occur that will have an effect if they do not show up.

...You are aware that the IRS being called back is because people would not be getting refunds if those employees would not be called back...right?

Considering how many will owe taxes this year because of tax bill to benefit the rich I don't see how it would be a bad thing.

Tax refunds aren't given out to the rich so we're back at the good ol' "Why does Lumen literally hate the poor?"

That's one way to get the public to hate the shutdown more.

Federal workers are actually very well paid... It's just that, you know. They're not getting paid until this nonsense is over.

That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the people who won't get their EIC or ACTC due to the shutdown.

Or you know, 1/4 to 1/3 of the annual income for some people.

...It isn't just the rich who benefit from refunds, the poor benefit, and arguably could be said to benefit more from these refunds.

hmmmm?

The poor probably. The middle class is going to be surprised as I think many will not see much of a refund if not owe money. That is if they didn't get advice on these "cuts"

My Trump-supporting middle class parents are very pleased about their tax cuts. Of course when I reminded them that theirs is temporary (and in a few years from now their taxes will go up) while the cuts for the rich are permanent, but they brushed it off. And wouldn't you know it, by the time their taxes go back up there will probably be a Democratic President again who will get the blame.

[New haven america]

You know, with the government shut down, I propose that we just start a new one.

I'm mean, who's gonna stop us? The Government!?
