We need a big change in the White House, this should be #1.

What a disgrace that is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

]]> Sat, 7 Feb 2009 10:12:07 UTC 4898916 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/4895030?utm_medium=rss It would take me 6 years to make $174,000! Especially now that my pay has been frozen! I did not get a cost of living raise when I had to spend almost $500 (over 1/4 of my pay) a month on gas just to work. Nor did my pay increase when minimum wage increased! Nor did I receive a raise when my kids lost their health insurance and child support stopped because their father was laid off from a company making millions on government contracts. Congress, join the ranks and hold on for the ride!

A raise is not an entitlement for crappy work. Government shares in the debacle that has befallen this country and Congress should not award themselves for their incompetence.

As government employees, my coworkers and I have not received pay raises (COLA or otherwise) in the past two fiscal years. The way things are looking, it's likely we will not see a raise in 2009. If you accept this $4,700 increase and automatic COLA increase every year, you are just as despicable as the bank execs!

Clean up the economy and Big Business and get the country back on it's feet and then you will deserve a raise.

It also demonstrates a deplorable ignorance.
