I don't think the general population understands how this works at all.I'm a federal government employee so this has the potential to cut off pay from my job and I'd still have to show up to work and just wait until it all clears up to get back paid.Even the pay I get through VA disability compensation would be cut off. Any pay I get from moonlighting on the side could potentially be affected because most companies pay nurses through Medicaid and/or Medicare funding which could be cut off.So it's not just those that get social security checks that are affected. And let's be clear those people that get SSI and/or social security retirement have earned that through money taken out of their income.And although you'll be back paid in most cases this doesn't negate that bills will keep coming and late fees will be applied. Some people may end up losing their vehicle, home, and won't have money for food and necessities.This is what happens when too many Republicans are in office. These are the consequences. It's about more than just the pipedream of reparations! This is real life. There are consequences.
