    If they completely break the payments system, does that mean government employees stop getting paid?

    Like no more federal government? No more ICE? No more military? No more FBI?

      It means all of a sudden you have a lot of well armed and well connected people out of a job, while probably the US dollar becomes worthless as a currency. If you live in the US and havent though about owning a weapon, now would be the time to quickly get one. You never know when the currency becomes worthless and police will demand all your food reserves at gunpoint.
