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:
No but he gave himself a pay raise.
Now this and so sad that so many still do not understand what his legacy was to divide and destroy our country.
and you raise yours? You are a worthless POS!
Whose getting it, the traitor or the Muslims???
Cuts pensions people earned but gives himself an 18% raise for life! He needs to be Stopped!
But he is asking for an 18% increase in his retirement and he wants grandma to get $169,000 for baby (?) sitting his two brats and living rent free in OUR HOUSE ALL THESE YEARS. I say NO to both and if congress gives in to this I will never vote for another incumbent!
In typical bully style, he always goes after the most vulnerable. His pension needs to be cut and he can pay his mother in law’s pension out of his own pocket too.
If he is signing the bill how did it get passed my congress?
Whaaaaaaaaaat. But he gave himself a raise? ???
But he gave himself a fat raise.
