When it comes to reigning in out-of-control government?
Congress deepens its pockets, lightens your wallet
Your U. S. House and Senate have voted themselves $4,700 and $5,300 raises, respectively.
They voted to not give you a Social Security Cost of Living (COLA) raise in 2010 and 2011.
Your Medicaid premiums will go up $285.60 for the 2 years and you will not get the 3% COLA equal to $660 per year.
Your 2 year loss and cost is -$1,600 or -$3,200 for husband and wife.
Over 2 years the House and Senate each get $10,000 raises.
So, is this really the kind of leadership you want?
