Should Federal Workers Stop Working?

Ex-Labor Secretary Robert Reich said that they should stop working for no pay and the furloughed workers should picket.

Federal workers are jumping through hoops to continue working without pay while stressing out over paying bills.

Do you agree or disagree with Robert Reich?

Personally, I agree with Reich. I think they're nuts to allow themselves to be exploited especially when Congress, the Senate and Trump are still being paid. The Trump Shutdown would end very quickly if all essential workers stopped working.

Yes they should stop! Working for free is not helping them in any way.

Let's see.....being forced to perform labor without compensation......there's a term for that, isn't there? One Donny and his band of landowners not-so-secretly love?

I knew when he said "Make america Great Again" he was referring to America before 1865 and that pesky Emancipation.

Hell, yes! Normally, I'm against protests and find them a waste of time that accomplishes nothing but this is different: these are the people our country depends on. If they were to hold a mass strike the government WOULD be open very quickly for obvious reasons.
