[...] When President Obama proposed to freeze Federal Government pay for two years I thought he was taunting us with an April Fool’s joke in November. I mean really. Is the public supposed to take the President seriously after he signed off on a 3.9% 2009 pay hike when Armageddon hit in 2008 while attacking the private sector for getting paid too much? Not only did all Federal Government employees get a 3.9% pay hike in 2009, they also got another 2.9% pay hike in 2010! In other words, while practically all of America suffered through the financial crisis with pay cuts and job losses, Federal Government employees raked it in! [...]

It's amazing to me how over the past year elected officials have been up in arms over executive salaries and "overcompensation" at financial companies when the biggest waste of money is really coming from the government. Overcompensated employees who have no real reason to work hard because of annual raises and increases (even in a bad economy when other sectors are laying off or decreasing wages), and it's hard to have any real faith in our government. I'm all for people being paid what the market will allow, but so many of these government jobs are not necessary and are just part of government bloat. .-= Peter´s last blog ..Blueprint For How To Make Money With A Blog: Advice From Successful Bloggers =-.
