Mike's Daily Comment
The disastrous Phoenix pay system was supposed to fix over-payment of $250 million to federal employees – it made it worse – and will now cost almost $1 billion to fix. The kicker? The bonuses paid to the managers overseeing the project.
The difference in Gross Domestic Product per person between totalitarian versus Democratic countries is dramatic. Cuba $450 vs Mexico $3610. Or how about Hungary @ $3550 vs Austria @ $23,510. The list goes on, but the really big surprise is that only 30% of Americans born after 1980 think its essential to live in a Democratic country!!!!
Would Prime Minister Trudeau and the NDP’s Jagmet Singh be lauding Castro if they understood what our veterans fought and died for?

But don’t worry, those responsible for this catastrophe got paid $4,827,913. in performance bonuses!
