Economic Illiteracy in America

[Imran Siddiqui]

Since you have a black man in your avatar, I'm going to trust you when you say that's what Obama would say

He wants people who want to be there for reasons besides money and job security.

I applaud that. Big thumps up!

Max Stier, president of the nonprofit Partnership for Public Service, criticized Obama for refusing to acknowledge that he simply does not want to raise federal pay.

"We're operating under a fiction where every year, every president cites a national emergency to avoid a pay raise the law otherwise requires for the federal workforce," Stier said. "That's not a way to run a railroad or a way to run a government.... It becomes Kabuki theater, and for an administration that wants transparency, this is not transparency."

Considering past pay raises I find this comment to be remarkably... stupid.
