Yep, and what does Congress get for retirement?
A variable rate pension that as of 2002 amounted to $41,000 to $55,000 year on average, with a cap at 85% of their salary, WITH cost of living adjustments. All for which they pay out a total of 8% which also covers their social security. They get that too if they qualify.
As if that wasn’t enough they have the equivlent of a 401k that is matched at 5% by you and me.

February 6, 2009 at 2:17 PM #342160CascaParticipantAh, there are some who are unable to comprehend a laconic reply. No doubt products of our modern unionized edutocracy.
Leave it at this. If I may borrow from Churchill. Their choice is economic pain, or perfidy. They will chose perfidy, and they will get pain.
It doesn’t matter what they do, since the only actions they are willing to take are meaningless to the present circumstance, and in fact worse than meaningless, counterproductive. Any good they could do is beyond them. This is the sort of government that leads to dictatorship. Since the polity decided to run the only men of true character out of town with wet towels, I suppose this is what comes of universal suffrage. Do enjoy the revolution. I will.
