21. Nearly every working person in this country has had a 'freeze'on pay and benefits

UNLESS they work for government, iMO it's about time they felt what the rest of us are going through. At least they have health insurance. Many of US are having to drop it.

State gov and fed gov employes have job security and pensions which private sector people do not have.

I don't worry about state or Fed gov employees. I've known quite a few. they are doing just fine compared to the rest of us.
