Obama Regime May be Bankrupt.

Update September 19, 2009

According to a morning report today on KHQ TV News, the DOJ employees still haven't been paid. The DOJ blames the delay on a payroll contractor. According to the report the original accounting and payroll contractor failed to make the August payrolls. DOJ says that they hired a new contractor but has still not managed to pay its employees. The DOJ only still promises to pay employees for 2 weeks at the end of September.


Original Post
Bob has learned from FOX News affiliate KAYU that many federal employees of the US Marshals Office, a part of the US DOJ, have not been paid since July. The employees have now been promised that they will get only 2 weeks pay at the end of September. Federal employees regularly get paid every 2 weeks. Most DOJ employees have continued to work more than a month since their last paychecks bounced.

Bob has also learned that affiliates of CBS, NBC, and ABC are continuing to ignore this story. The bankruptcy of the US Government would be the biggest news item of this century, but leftist media refuses to tell the people what is going on. This story broke at the end of the news day on Friday, 9-11, so federal employees and many news service staff have been out of their offices for the weekend.

If the government inability to pay its employees was due to a failure of its convoluted payroll system, they would be promising to pay a full months pay and back pay owed as soon as the payroll system problems are dealt with. Only a lack of money to make payments would cause anyone, including a government, to promise only half pay at the end of next month. If payroll can pay half pay they can pay whole pay unless they have no money to pay their employees.

Be afraid. Be very afraid. Stockpile food and ammunition, and whiskey for trade goods.
