Helping Out the Poor, Impoverished Federal Bureaucrats

In the midst of never-ending news reporting of the awful, awful, fate of the poor, impoverished, self-sacrificing federal bureaucrats who are on an extended, post-holiday paid vacation because of the “government shutdown” the mayor of Baltimore has asked the city’s water company to forgive any late penalties on monthly $50-60 water bills for federal bureaucrats.  No one else who is having trouble with their bills, just federal bureaucrats who, of course, will be fully paid once the charade of a “shutdown” is over.  (By the way, if government was really “shut down” then members of Congress would not be getting paid either.  That would end the “shutdown” immediately).
