“Caps On”

http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_theticket/20101129/ts_yblog_theticket/obama-announces-federal-pay-freeze

President Obama announced Monday that all civilian federal employees’ salaries will be frozen for 2 years to help the nation climb out of the deficit. As a result, federal workers are more motivated than ever to do nothing all day at work.

Upon hearing the news, a General Motors executive said, “Whew. Went back to being a private company just in time. For having that kind of foresight, I’m giving myself a raise.”

Military personnel will not be affected by the freeze. They will, forever, be left in an endless war in a scorching desert.

Members of the armed forces report that they are less concerned with their salary and more concerned about their benefits. And by benefits they mean an exit strategy to get them the hell out of the Middle East.
