What are the odds Repubs will vote themselves another raise....
...before they are voted out in November? Or just in case they are, they want to assure they suck one last dollar out of the American taxpayers? What do you think?

2. we need to make a law that We, the People decide when they get a raise
I think that would solve many problems, because it would make them accountable to their employer.

3. That's an interesting idea for some Populist to run on...
I think it would be accepted by the public.
