I work at a national lab that sent everyone home without pay for one week so far, lack of funding. War over Science, the Director sent out a directive not to discuss that event with implied threat. Just think about that, a national lab doing fundamental science that corporations for the most part are not interested in went home without pay. Not that science should take precedence over other peaceful needs, it's just how bankrupt physically and morally we are in the u.s. Have we come to the end of End Stage Capitalism.
Yes we thought so too. Much of what the u.s. Gov. used to do is now done by contractors even NASA now is mostly contractors. Our lab became a LLC roughly 10 yrs. ago, three Uni. and a private co. still funded by a Gov. dept. Healthcare you could keep when you retired was the first thing that went.

You had a gag order to not tell anyone you weren't getting paid? That's too weird.
