For years, the Democrat-controlled congress raised deficits and regulations under Obama. Once Americans had enough and handed both the Senate and the House back to the GOP, Obama vetoed several Republican attempts to balance the budget and put the nation back on economic track once again.
After a high-profile government shutdown, and threats of several more, the Democrats seem to have won. Despite their minority status in both legislative chambers, they continue to cripple the nation’s economy and run up the county’s deficits with reckless abandon.
Economists have long warned that the increased spending across the board would soon have consequences. This week, their warnings have begun to come true.
Of course, it isn’t the government that’s suffering. It’s everyday Americans.
See what’s going to happen to a quarter million American’s pensions on the next page:
How did he not get shot?
Never should get a penny of our hard earned money Let the communist pay the pig
And gave himself a huge raise in his pension. Need to hang this pos traitor
Instead of giving him the raise he wants in his pension. It is only fair. Also cut the $160,000 per year for the pension of his mother in law. Child sitters do not make that kind of money or live as high as her for 8 years.
But the$#%&!@*raised his pay!! I wish someone would assassinate him already!!!?
Hey democrats he is turning more people against you , isnt that great fo the republicans
HOPEFULLY CONGRESS HAS IT COVERED FOR ONCE!!!
I think he should cut his pension!
This dumb$#%&!@*gives himself a raise that would cover all the pensions but he would rather steal your pension!!!
Was this to pay for his raise?
