Tacky

It looks like Congress will get their pay raise this year. It will be about 2.8% up from an average of $169,300 per year. I know this is a drop in the bucket of the overall federal budget, but it just seems a little hypocritical of them to be hammering away at auto maker CEOs for riding to the hearings in their private jets and then to give themselves raises during an economic downturn. I think it just sends the wrong message to America. So as Stephen Colbert would say: A wag of the finger to you, Congress.
