Hmm, per my worldview I’m not totally sure if that counts, actually …but maybe it does 🤔

On the one hand, the service is being provided but compensation not collected. Under most circumstances I’d consider this stealing from the employer, as opposed to a simple strike where you freely don’t show up to work.

On the other hand, it’s the state, and I can entertain some question about how much they are owed further money when their existence and activity is primarily funded through extortion.
