Well this isn’t surprising given that the Democrats have worked tirelessly to get them on the DNC payroll for generations at this point. Handouts tied to votes and power are just the Democrat’s updated form of slavery, really. The soft bigotry of low expectations and all that.

Zero Hedge is one of the sources that I automatically dismiss without bothering to consider the content.

So the jobs report was not fluffed up by all those government employees added in time to hand out $750 checks to those living in hurricane floodplains?

Is there an actual source for that?

My neighbor was just completely upset that we sent millions to Lebanon, but hurricane victims only get $750. She heard that from a Trump speech.

Is Trump a liar, or that stupid?

While I’ll take anything published by this far right website with a grain of salt, I’ve seen other reports indicating that government hiring is rebounding.  This is good.  A "retirement tsunami" took place in the local, state and federal government sectors between 2010 and 2020, with tens of thousands of employees deciding to clock out.  Count me among those who decided to retire.  It’s been a real challenge replacing the institutional knowledge and expertise that took decades to develop.  Public agencies are just now catching up to their pre-2020 staffing levels.

No shit. Try and get any governmental agency to answer a damned phone these days. The Illinois Department of Labor at least answers the phone when you need to provide witness contact info for wage claim hearings. Other than that, good luck. Did not used to be that way.

There's a program that hot wires anyone who experiences a natural disaster 750 right away, with very little qualification, so that people have some cash to deal with basic immediate needs.

Down the line, there are bigger benefits based on your own damage levels.

When we had the Tubbs fire and a lot of people I knew fled their houses with their houses on fire, in the middle of the night, there wasn't really time to go digging around for your wallet. I found this out when I was at the gas station filling up in order to evacuate just because, and saw people who had fled the fire zone parked at the freeway offramp, out of gas and basically with nothing but the clothes on their backs - if that.  750 will get you a tank of gas, some clothes, some food, a hotel, etc.. and by the time you need more, there will be agencies settled in (the Sonoma County Fairgrounds was a one stop shop for a new license, passport, the banks were there issuing people new ATM and credit cards, etc...)
