Actually, about 84% of Federal Workers are Union, and will get a raise from this, it's pre-written in their contracts, and non-negotiable. For about every .75 cents the minimum wage increases, most Unions will get a mandatory %5-%8 raise, so, do the math. It works out into a nice fat raise, especially for those that already are pulling in over $48.00 an hour already.

I suggest a name change to the STOU it should be called The Lip Service Speech.All the stuff he just talked about all these bold ideas will come to nothing.As I have said the State Of The Union speech is meaningless it's only function is to maintain the illusion that The President is in charge.Well,to the few of my fellow ATS members who believe this he's not.

How about, instead of STOU just STFU?

That's exactly what he is doing. Seize retirement accounts to the tune of over 3 billion, then "give" every man, woman, and child, and every child born thereafter, $500.00 for a starter account.
When you hear, “Hello, I’m from the federal government and I want to help you manage your retirement savings,” the best advice is to run away, as fast as you can.
Two years ago, WND reported the U.S. Department of Labor and the Treasury Department held joint hearings on whether government lifetime annuity options funded by U.S. Treasury debt should be required for private retirement accounts, including IRAs and 401(k) plans.
