All of those government employees were paid retroactively for not working. That's incredibly wasteful. And everybody knew it was going to happen...even Cruz.
I'm not going to pretend to know whether he or anybody else knew that they would be retroactively paid. That being said, if a person fights against wasteful spending, knowing very well that it will actually result in even more wasteful spending (paying government employees not to work) then I would view that person more negatively than those that are all for wasteful spending. It would be one of the worst forms of hypocrisy.
