Piemaker, if an employer refuses to give raises then don't work for this company. Truth of the matter there will always be those at the bottom of the totem pole who will never be able to better themselves. Some causes are lack of education, lack of experience, lack of intelligence, and laziness.

So you are saying anyone at the bottom of the totem pole is stupid and lazy. Hell why don't we just knock all them worthless people in the head then they would not be a drain on your economy.

Let's check some six figure pay and see if these people deserve what they get.

From The Congressional Institute:
Representatives and Senators currently earn $165,200 per year
The Majority and Minority Leaders in both the House and Senate and the President pro tempore of the Senate earn $180,100. The Speaker of the House earns $208,000.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Salary Effective Date
$165,200 January 1, 2006
$162,100 January 1, 2005
$158,100 January 1, 2004
$154,700 January 1, 2003
$150,000 January 1, 2002
$145,100 January 1, 2001
$141,300 January 1, 2000
$136,700 January 1, 1998
$133,600 January 1, 1993
$129,500 January 1, 1992
Nice raises every year, they deserve every penny uh. Most of these people own businesses in the private sector that they make money from.

No, I was listing some causes. You missed my point. I give up. No more trying to get you to understand this issue.
