Federal workers are about to have their pay frozen at its current level. Savings? About $60 billion.

Poor things. I'll trade with them: I'm taking a pay CUT. My pay has been frozen at this level for several years already. I'd be happy if it would just stay at its current amount.

Pity the poor federal workers. They will feel the pinch. And, like the rest of us, endure a lower standard of living, cutting corners, watching out for bargains and ways to save.
