Apo 09211, us Page 11 letters writer criticizes congressional pay raises 1 read in the stars and stripes and army time that lawmakers Are going to vote themselves a raise from $8 3,000 to Over 1100,000 a year. This gives me the perfect solution to the National debt fire the current lawmakers and replace them with individuals dedicated to we the people and not out after a Buck. The following is addressed to the current lawmakers thank you for the 4.1 percent pay raise that you so kindly voted for me. Thank you for cutting the defense budget and manpower Down so drastically. Thank you for the loss in Money to training and family support activities. Thank you for wanting to make the european come non existent for family members just to save Money. I can see now where the Money saved will go. This Money won t go into the programs slashed b in into your pockets so you can afford the raise you want to give yourselves. 1 truly love the retirement benefits you. The Law makers have. Over a million dollars you will get for retirement and you want More. I therefore have a question for you How can i get a Job like yours i would love to be Able to vote myself a raise. I would love to have a retirement package such As yours. I la just bet no one would even dare change your retirement As you have so repeatedly done with the military. How can you people treat the military with such disregard sit Down and think to youself if it was t for the military you would t be Able to even Vole. There would be a King or dictator telling you How much you should make How Many hours you will work the kind of Job you will do or where you will live. Sound familiar 1 Hope so i am a registered voter and one thing that i truly would like to set is to let us Vole on your raises. Or belief yet let the Price Index that the military is supposed to be on go far lawmakers is Well. If the National debt is so bad which from what i have seen and heard it is How can you justify such a High increase in your pay again thank you for the 4.1 percent pay raise you so generously gave us. But remember that i am part of we the pc Elf and a registered voter. I plan to exercise my right and responsibility As a registered voter to make certain that your Type does not continue to Prosper from everyone else. David c.

Our vote Bui we As people Don to when i opened my stars and stripes and read the article House defeats proposal to count overseas serv ice members in census i must admit that my feelings were Hurt. 1 do not understand what the big Deal is about where the Soldier s Home is. Why can t they just use the Soldier s Home of record they certainly have no problem deciding our accountability when it comes to paying taxes. Maybe we should pay our taxes to Germany since our physical persons live Here. It just does t seem fair that we arc not counted in the census count when we vote and pay taxes m our Home states. Spec.
