Very few Americans were lucky enough to get raises last year. Despite this, the Obama regime displays a Neo-Feudal attitude. White House staffers got raises higher than the normal American worker. Keep in mind, the US government is 14 Trillion in debt and Obama is calling for sacrifices. Well he should start with his own staff.
The White House released its annual salary report last week, and as usual, it’s nice to work for Barack Obama: Most staffers who were there for more than a year got a salary bump. A bigger one than you did.
The last time we checked in on White House salaries, we found that an astonishing 75% of continuing staffers got raises from 2009 to 2010—a huge number given the fact that, according to compensation experts, most companies had skipped routine raises that year in reaction to the economic crisis that the White House was busy failing to solve. This time around—from 2010 to 2011—the ratio is a little less dramatic. Of the 270 White House staffers who have been there for more than a year, 146—or 54%—received raises. The average salary increase was 8%. If you look at only staffers who got raises, the average increase was twice that.

This is just a smack in the face to US taxpayers. At a time of wage freezes and government debt, White House workers shouldn’t be getting extravagant raises. This is Neo-Feudalism on pure display.
