Possibly also a good move professionally.

Re: Getting ECB'd (none / 1)
Interestingly it seems that around here the government department that seems to have more problems paying salaries is... defence (which includes part of the de facto police, the one that acts in small cities and rural areas).

It is exactly the group that you DO NOT want to stop paying salaries: those with guns.

Up to now only a delay of one day on salary payments (and today a complaint from the police top official that there are cash flow problems).
