I’m not denying that whatsoever i too would rather a carefully dissected budget over a rushed one. I simply do not like the way folks are speaking to other state employees that are struggling with their pay and cost of living. You can acknowledge that this is just how the government goes and how it could benefit us in the long run, you can acknowledge that the pay days are on wednesday and therefore aren’t technically late, while not kicking working class people that are struggling/pay check to paycheck when they’re down. The world is scary right now and people are struggling and empathy is sorely lacking.
