Hey, Smartdog...
Be a good fellow and cite your sources. My sources give me a completely different picture. I don't think we can both be right, so I would like to view your source material. Thanks.

Good post.  Also, nowadays, most pay raises don't even cover the increase in medical costs and education we see; and there are many other things becoming more expensive - outpacing pay 'increases'.  Essesntially, most of the country has been taking annual pay cuts for the last 5 years.  At the same time, congress has voted to increase their salary - by 3% more than the inflation rate.

Be well,
