Government is shutting down ... So What? CNN needs a correction. There are very few government workers, but there are many government employees!

Ever call a government office? Does one of these 800,000 bureaucrats ever answer the phone?
If and when you get a person, do they help you, or just send you somewhere else? Is it to where you can't find the person you have to speak to or do just get an abrupt reply and are treated with a "why are you bothering me" attitude?
Ever go to a government office? Do you get immediate help for what you went there? OR, is there someone behind a desk or a window who is on the phone or in conversation and going out of their way to deliberately ignore you?
Is it only 800,000 of these drones who are on temporary furlough, when it should be a few million?
