    They’re entitled to back pay…

    That’s not the same as saying they’ll get it, even in the best of the times.

      OK, they’re entitled to back pay. He’ll just put them on infinte hold until he’s king or dead.

      Do you not realize you’re dealing with psychopathic billionaires that don’t think they’re accountable to the law in any way? Like a child rapist president felon?

        They may not be paid promptly, but I kind of suspect that if back pay is not forthcoming, there’s probably going to be a class-action lawsuit or similar, and they may wind up not just wages, but with with interest on said wages.

          Personally, I think that backpay would be one of the Blue State’s advantages during a civil war. One nation honors it obligations, the Neo Confederates won’t.
