Shocking that Congress opted not to take a direct pay raise, but I'd be willing to bet most made up for it with other forms of compensation.
Also, there are MANY other things that need to be cut in government spending. I'd really like to know what is planned, but I doubt they're cutting out all the pet projects and other crap. There is way too much bullshit that gets thrown into bills. If we cut out all of that BS, we might actually be able to get back into profit. This is nothing more than a simple way to put on the appearance of cutting spending, while not actually getting into the meat of the whole thing.

Postal Service is effectively its own self sufficient entity. They are not paid for by tax dollars
something along those lines
