I'm not entirely sure about every government agency, but I know my friends who work on the Hill won't be paid in the case of a shutdown. They will still go to work and answer phones and write letters.
Some are lucky and have parents that can help them out. Others aren't so lucky. Are banks and landlords going to be understanding? I really don't know.
I just read in Roll Call that they won't be receiving any back pay either. They simply won't get paid for however long this shutdown will last.
These tea fuckers protesting outside the Capitol are such morons.
