Ratings may stink, but Congress gets a $4,100 raise

I used to be in the military for 10 years and we always got it.

It was almost always delayed for us. One year we didn't get it, but got it the next.

I would like to know how much they spend with their expense accounts.

That said, I think their pay should be tied to the national debt increase or decrease each fiscal year. If they increase the national debt by 10%, they get a 10% pay decrease. If they lower the national debt by 10%, they get a 10% raise.

Here here, I'll second that...

The Military and Congress are two different things. First of all Military pay isn't six figures, second everyday of the military is hard, no 30 second days in the service.
