Raise for congress
« on: December 30, 2012, 01:59:34 AM »
President Obama Just issued an executive order giving congress and federal workers a raise. According to fox news this amounts to about a billion dollars a year.
These Guys can't agree what to put in their coffee for crying out loud and they feel like they deserve a raise. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME! >:(

Hmmm? I haven't had a cola raise since 2010. The price of fuel has nearly tripled, my heath insurance premiums doubled. And the price of everything has continually been raising.

Now OBee does this....only there's a neat little trick involved. Federal GS payscale employees get their cola raises in January.....meaning we don't get one this year either. And when we do finally get it.....it's a half of percentage point.

Thanx Obee ::)

Sounds sorta like a bribe to me, or a pay off with our money for them putting him back in office.
What's next ? An increase in welfare payments ? Or an increase in section eight housing after he
allowed the banksters to foreclose on more homes for ridiculous reasons.
Did any of you know that WF bank not only collects off the interest on their existing home loans.
But has started to charge those homeowners a substantial service fee for them having to carry that
loan ! Tacking on a couple of hundred dollars per month to a fixed rate payment on that home.
The Stagecoach is now days doing the hold ups ! What about things like this Mr.Obama ?
