I figured it out

“I figured it out 
I figured it out
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot,
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour,
Forty hours every week, 
And that's enough for me to be living like a king!”
I figured it out 
(song: Seven-And-A-Half Cents from “The Pajama Game, lyrics by Richard Adler/Jerry Ross)

OR: you could live like a King, if you are either one of trumps Cabinet members, who will receive at least $10,000 increase in their base salary, OR: be some kind of advisor for Mike Pence and let the $10,000 bonus just float upwards, as has always been the Republican plan of TRICKLE UP Economics…Even the VP, Mike Pence, just for standing like a limp piece of seaweed, swallowing any backbone or balls he might have once had, and defending a neurotic, narcissist dangerous dictator and his Russian paid for antics. You can be nothing but bland, or bad or a shiftless feckless phony and get paid very well in the land of Trump…AND then, not to mention the EX-House Speaker, who left town with one of the lowest ratings of popularity and professionalism and doing the job, and job, at 12% approval, he too will leave the country in ruins BUT receive, for his NOTHING but SHIT record when he turns 50,Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS), he could receive $84, 930 a year…he was making $223, 500, for just insisting that Benghazi, Hillary’s e-mails were important and that anyone that colluded with Russia, hacked into our nations polling systems, and of course any anarchy by Trump toward America was nothing but fuddy-da! 

Only ten years from today, Only ten years from today,
I can see it, clear as daylight, Only ten years from today!
Ten years! Let's see..that’s 520 weeks, times forty hours every week, and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime.. at time
and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly.. $1705.48!
That's enough for me to buy A trip to France across the seas,
A motorboat and water skis, Maybe even a foreign car,
A charge account at the corner bar,
Not to mention a scrabble board with letters made of gold!

OR: You could be a Federal Worker and have your pay frozen for the entire year or 2019…a 2.8% increase in Social Security Benefits…2.4% increase in salary if you are one the men and women in the American Military…and of course if you are on food stamps, or below the poverty line you can just get another job somewhere doing something if you want more food, you selfish pig…AND if you are one of the currently furloughed government workers, Trump will assure you that all the people to whom you owe, rent money, mortgage payments, your doctors, if you are a small businessman, your suppliers…Trump who certainly can brag about knowing GOOD people…will tell you, as he already has…no one is going to pressure you into paying what you owe!
