A couple of neighbors have sung the same tune. One, with high hopes, checked on line to see if anyone was enjoying a better situation.
Here is what he found:
Salary of retired US Presidents ...............$450,000
Salary of House/Senate members ..........$174,000
Salary of Speaker of the House ..............$223,500
Salary of Majority/Minority Leaders ........$193,400
Average salary of a soldier DEPLOYED IN AFGHANISTAN - $38,000
Average income for Seniors on SOCIAL SECURITY $12,000
Wow! Well some people are doing better!
Maybe we should rethink "Frozen". It could be worse, but let's hope for greener days ahead.

It appears that the numbers reported in this post arenot correct. A friend did some research, at least on the President, and learned the pension is $179K or $189K. I now have a lower number to dream about, but glad to post the correct dollar amount.
