Obama uses an executive order to end the pay freeze on federal employees. The V.P., congress and judges are included to received the raises, while they are not huge, somewhere around 0.5%, but it will cost 1 billion dollars per year, according to the CBO.

I think Americans should start asking politicans to take there pay and donate it to the government to help knock down this deficit.
As we all know, there arent any in congress who are struggling for money.
Please stop being fair and logical!! You know that's never the answer!!
Obama got elected by giving away money maybe now it can buy congress too.
Although I would not think congress is worth buying.
Look at it as another stimulus. Maybe federal employees will all go out and buy an assault weapon with their raise.
