Is this slavery? Judge orders federal workers must report to work unpaid

I think certain guys gotta show up, like air traffic controllers and other essential personnel.

of course its slavery. "slave" doesnt only apply to picking cotton 200 years ago. sht in some states the minimum wage is $7.25, I'd say that's slavery too. these workers need to all stop showing up to work at once. they can't fire everybody. or just keep faking being sick like thousands are doing now.

the last thing you wanna deal with is a stressed out air traffic controller lol. if this shutdown persists i see riots and deaths coming.

They can receive unemployment benefits those who don’t apply are stupid . They also get all their back pay so you see they are still going to get paid . Seems to me Julia is a Snowflake Far Leftist Communist Pig

By definition, if you are being forced to work without pay, isn't that slavery?



"The plaintiffs in the case argued that being forced to work without pay is against the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery. They also asked that the judge prevent them from being retaliated against for not showing up to work and asked them to allow workers the ability to find other means of income while they are not being paid."

No one is forcing them to work. They can quit, but we know people aren't giving up them gravy jobs. If it has any similarities to anything it would be indentured servitude, but only a month or two versus 7 years.

Didn't know slaves got back pay later
