Congress Did What!?
December 19, 2008
You can file this one under WTF or OMG or Hell Has Frozen Over because the end must be near.
| A crumbling economy, more than 2 million constituents who have lost their jobs this year, and congressional demands of CEOs to work for free did not convince lawmakers to freeze their own pay. Instead, they will get a $4,700 pay increase, amounting to an additional $2.5 million that taxpayers will spend on congressional salaries. |
Yeah, this is un-effing-believable.
