I have to wonder, these politicians keep speaking of raising taxes and americans not paying enough. When is the last time you or i had the ability to go to our workplace and say ' i dont have enough money for xxx, so you have to pay more ' ? I have heard virtually no discussion of reducing costs. you know, spend money within out income like you and me. The last time i decided i wanted to purchase something, i had to make the decision of what to do without so i could save up the money for the purchase.
So my question is, why do we let the government do this? If the government is in debt, use the same answer that is used by everyone else in the country - SPEND LESS. yes, this will mean reducing all government paychecks, not just the hourly employees as florida has done with its teachers. Start by cutting all salaried employees pay by say 15%. After all, the majority of the salaried workers are administrative, meaning they do not perform the services that are being argued over. Our government, like our businesses in the 80's have gathered too many administrative political payback jobs that can be done without.
