Well,guess they can just raise our taxes or print more money to pay for it.
Wonder what would happen to a private company that was $18 trillion in debt.
Fed employees are already paid 50-100% more than the private sector, not including perks, and retirement.
How much will your “raise” be this year? My disabled veteran compensation went up 1.7%.
Jeez, our overpaid & underworked civil “service” overlords want even higher pay.
we all know those "unpaid furloughs" meant nothing....that money was all recouped...
we all know the highest standard of living is among govt employees in the DC district, Maryland, northern Virginia...
but that aside, can my husband look forward to a nice 3.8% raise in his guard retirement?
since the system is so corrupt, I makes me want more and more to “legally” escape taxes....its our patriotic duty to not send these people one red cent more than absolutely necessary.
But I haven't gotten any since this whole recession started. Where's mine? I guess I could go for a health care subsidy but I refuse to do so.
it’s a bribery ploy to keep the employees loyal to their criminal masters
And the military will get a pay cut.
That means a 3.8% raise for Congress, too. I don’t see them turning it down.
And the military got a 1% raise...
“We got creamed in the elections! What can we do?”
“Let’s promise the government employees stuff that we know we can’t really give them. They’re so damn stupid, they’ll believe anything us Democrats tell them.”
Oh man... what was the point of electing Republicans??
Isn't that cute? I've been retired a few years now, and Social Security hasn't provided us with anything close to that in 7 years, that I know of; But quite a few years of zero benefit increases.
Just knowing the competence and dedication of public employees makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
Those union thugs need a lesson real soon.
Time to give our reps a blast? The last one didn't deliver the right message?
