The fact that there aren't hundreds of .gov employees hanging from light poles shows that Americans are a remarkably patient people.

Not to mention that we would need to take time off from work  :angel:
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

Nah. Properly motivated, there are plenty of spry retirees, off-shift workers and students who could handle the task without causing the economy a hiccup.

You get a teotwawki and I get there will be .gov employees hanging, city, state and fed. Nearly everyone has stood in a DMV line or tried to get a building or business permit.  These people lord over you that they have the power to make or break you.

Folks, this thread has taken a definite turn for the worse.

We're discussing hanging government employees now. That alone is bad juju.

We have government employees as forum members.  I wonder how they feel about reading this drek.  =|
