Fantasies

I took an accounting class. Too boring. If we look down on Aftican dictator who avoid taxes, why not on the American rich. Some lousy creaps.

Best use them then.

What are lower government spending going to do & where to cut is the question?

Bush began the practice of extra pay for certain special private executive on board in the government. Remember the million that Wall Street top regulator gave himself under Bush II.

Problem with your analysis is that the 40 hour week came in many years before you stated.

Sounds like you are

The legislators deliberately have been underfunding pensions for years as they played with the budget & it speaks more to a recent market crash we all enjoyed. All reinforcing the stupidity of market based retirement funding for SS & others. Plenty of private employees can get their unused sick days. Maybe if military could not retire at full pay after 20 years, maybe we would have less wars. What difference is it who collects the fee? Beside you all loving another inconvenience for unions.

Fact is we are more worried about lack of taxes on those who can afford it.

Any excuse to raise prices.
