Government worker: I can’t believe the Chinese government allows you to work in these poor conditions for such little pay. Sweatshop laborer: Beats having to work for free.

What is the union doing for these hardship employees?

So tax refunds will be delayed? IRS call centers to answer questions about the new tax law will be non-existent? Federal 2018 tax forms are still in draft form?

Might I suggest a career change, proctology. Many who worked for the IRS under Obama going after the Tea Party should receive 8 years of credit towards their degree.

Walk, all of you walk out

Ruling party probably said....... 'WE'LL JUST RAISE MORE TAXES TO MAKE UP'.

Let me repeat: This. Is. What. Trump. Wants. Along with the GOP. They are using the shutdown to re-engineer gov't.
