Everyone who isn't sick or injured, stop whining !

Regarding the looming federal government shutdown, that really won't be a shutdown:

The short-term bill would fund the Defense Department through the rest of this year, guaranteeing the troops would continue to get paychecks even in the event of a shutdown.

During the Revolution, soldiers fought without payment, using their own equipment and with an uncertain outcome.

More recently during the Civil War (unless you're a government propaganda moron tasked with distancing us from such unpleasant realities, it was recent) we find the following:

Soldiers were supposed to be paid every two months in the field, but they were fortunate if they got their pay at four-month intervals (in the Union Army) and authentic instances are recorded where they went six and eight months. Payment in the Confederate Army was even slower and less regular.

So why are we being fed a fit over soldiers' pay vis-a-vis the "government shutdown" that really isn't one ? Grow up. No one saves for a rainy day.

Tough, if you don't get paid on time ! Who would pay you in a NBC war ? You'll get paid.

If you don't like it, refuse the unlawful orders of the Globalists as your oaths tell you to do.

Learn some US laws and US history before you take the next oath.

You're serving the Beast from the East right now, not the USA.
