Salary of retired USPresidents .............$180,000 FOR LIFE
Salary of House/Senate .....................$174,000 FOR LIFE This is stupid
Salary of Speaker of the House ............$223,500 FOR LIFE! This is really stupid
Salary of Majority/Minority Leader ..... $193,400 FOR LIFE! Ditto last line
Average Salary of a teacher .............. $40,065
Average Salary of Soldier DEPLOYED IN AFGHANISTAN .......$38,000
Think about this.
Nancy Pelosi will retire as a Congress Person at $174,000 Dollars a year for LIFE.
She has retired as SPEAKER at $223,500 a year.
PLUS she will receive an additional $193,400 a year as Minority Leader.
That’s $803,700 Dollars a year for LIFE including FREE medical which is not available toUS...the taxpayers?
She is just one of the hundreds of Senators and Congress that float in and out every year!
I think we found where the cuts should be made!

PLEASE tell me & the MILLIONS who work their butts off to earn each & every penny that this is NOT true!!!
They are rulers, not representatives. They have bequeathed to themselves the proverbial pot of gold. They want US, "we, the people" to work at minimum wage, parse out health care to us, make seniors choose between medicine and heat, and at the same time, exempt themselves from the same laws they impose upon us. NONE of them are worth that kind of money. And when obama tells his minions that he wants the budget "cuts" to be as painful as possible (to you know who), that is a clear indication of how he REALLY feels about the serfs. Your president WANTS you to suffer. Wants you to feel hardship. So much for being a leader....
9:03 it's true. What's also true is that no one is stopping you from running for a congressional office.
Thank you SO much for "Words Of Wisdom" Alex!!! I never knew that we live in a free country where every U.S. citizen can legally run for office until your post.
I tell you what though...it sounds like you're o.k. with these OUTRAGEOUS amounts Alex, but if I was elected I would FIGHT to significantly reduce these amounts. This is 1 of many factors of why America's deficit is SKY HIGH.
What's also true is add the benefit package to the teachers salary, and they number probably doubles.
Full health care for teacher and family is very expensive.
Andy, the main reason we're in debt is because we had two useless wars paid for by a credit card.
Alex, that's the only reason?
I can think of 47 million people that never worked to earn a dime to pay Social Security yet they bleed taxpayers to support them.
NOT elderly that worked and payed into the Socialist system all their lives, but the dregs of society that feel just because they are stupid deserve life support for them and their spawn.
CUT it now.
I see Alex referred to often with his comments. What is Alex's last name. I want to be sure I know the fools among us if I by chance encounter this person.
Wiki Answers, estimates Nancy Pelosi's retirement at $200,000. Quite a bit but less than reported. I dislike Nancy Pelosi and I dislike excessive spending by both parties. We've got to clean this mess up but let's be careful of what we claim. Incorrect and exaggerated reports don't help our cause. They're fun for believers but won't convince those on the other side.
Upon retirement they should only receive pension on one of the 'jobs' they held, the last one. naughty nancy does not deserve any pension, what has she done? that goes for the majority of congress in the last five years, including the 'president'.
Question: $174,000 + $223,500 + $193,400 = $590,900. $803,700 - $590,900 = $212,800. Where is the $212,800 of piggy pelosi's for life income coming from??
So, Alex, please explain why your hero obama is so intent on making sure the sequestration (which as you may or may not know, is NOT a "cut" at all) is as painful as it can possibly be for Amercicans. WHY would ANY president wish PAIN and SUFFERING upon the people?
They don't add all three... she will retire with the amount of the position she holds AT retirement. Still absurd.
And still could get SS and Medicare if her assets are in a foundation.
