This is your typical "tax cuts for the wealthy" argument.

All military personnel are getting a 2.2% raise, E-1 through O-10.

Those 125 Generals and Admirals are having their salary cap lifted. This is so congress can give themselves a raise.

For those that did not know it. ALL federal employees are subject to a salary cap. No matter how long you have been there or what your pay grade is, there is a base pay maximum.

Congress's pay is tied to Mullen's?
