Lol I love how I work for Congress and your I guess view of what I and several thousands of others like me do for Congress is akin to WWE.
Not sure what you are talking about with the impoundment act being used to do something permanent.... Thats not really how it functions. Withholding funds isnt the same as cancelling projects?
What are you expecting to happen with Air Traffic Control? Fun fact if it ever got bad we could send in our air force trained operators to help lessen the load but that would freak everyone out. The issue with Air Traffic Control is how long it takes and that there is one school in the US for it. That is why you saw the creation of Enhanced Air Traffic – Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI) last October and the rapid scale up Sec. Duffy has done with it. Now 7 schools are running this program but it still takes two years to complete and we are barely one year in.
Air Traffic Control has for a long time depending on people retiring from the military to join them. That is why there was only one school was because most people got their training in the military.
We also do not fund things based on usage on purpose. Look at Amtrak, the USPS, etc. once a pandemic or some sort of disruption hits the whole system falls apart.
You fetch coffee and dry cleaning for the actors, probably never even heard of a SCIF until I asked you about it.
I'm not talking about onboarding new controllers, but paying the ones already on the job.
We also do not fund things based on usage on purpose.
Yea, money laundering. Everything must be defunded by default for that to end, which is what we're watching unfold.

Jesus Christ you are so hard to take seriously. You act like some enlightened person who knows so much when you have instead moved to a state of being entirely separated from reality and what is going on.
There is no issue with paying the ones we already have because its required once the government is funded. They dont have to go back and deal with backpay negotiations because they are required by law. All of these Departments and Agencies are linked to credit unions as well that are offering free loans to cover bills. Hell even Chase has contacted me about how since I work for Congress they have a whole new thing set up for people effected by the missed paychecks cause guess what I'm not getting paid this month either.
Now you are jumping to money laundering because I said we dont fund things based off of taxing people for using things.... got it.....

That's your pretense of knowledge you don't actually have, ego. I only discuss the possibilities.
separated from reality
You have zero idea what's real, but think you do.
once the government is funded
You're a little slow, eh?
Assume this goes on much, much longer, potentially so long emergency powers change things such that the end is not restoration but something entirely new. Private lending won't float the payroll in perpetuity.

Jesus Christ you still cant carry a complete conversation can you? You only discuss possibilities but yeah know the biggest one is that the government funding passes. Guess you forgot about that one.
You are trying to fit a square peg into a round hole with your poor attempt at leveraging ego driven behavior.... I mean any basic psych course would say that the person with poor impulse control and highly likely real work issues with fitting in would be the one throwing these phrases around first. Its a really bad attempt to get people to doubt themselves or feel bad.
Your usage of "You have zero idea what's real, but think you do." is a prime example of further behavior discussed above. But I will highlight it is entirely different English style than what you used with the philosophical approach used first.
Of course you gotta follow it up with a good ending of calling me slow. To go back to how you first went after me from the philosophical your cognitive dissonance response of projection is crystal clear.
The government will be funded in November. Now will it be the 3rd or will it be a couple of days after that who knows but the pressure will break the stalemate with SNAP benefits not hitting along with a second paycheck for most Federal workers.
Regardless your whole shtick has devolved into an ad hominem attack. Definitely a curve ball I didnt see coming today so that was neat to brush off my psychology terms. Go touch some grass or go on a walk.

Case in point for a classic ego defense mechanism in action.
