And what about all the House and Senate and Adm employees, AND in fact, ALL Government workers over the years..... how much are we paying for their retirement these days?

How about the idea of removing all pension and retirement benefits for all government workers? Us non-government workers have to take care of ourselves after we stop working, why do government employees need to be taken care of in their post-work years?

Pay them all more today, and once they quit or are forced to retire, they are, like the rest of us, on their own.

Government workers don't need to be paid more. If they think the Government isn't paying enough, let them leave and try their luck in private business.
