[quote=Anonymous]The notion that police and teachers are "enriching themselves" would be hilarious if it wasn't so disgusting. The people that approve these increases are elected officials who do not get the raises themselves. Raises for elected officials follow a totally separate process. No county or MCPS employee is deciding on their own raises. Some employees do budget analysis involving raises and IME they typically opposed their own raises because they know how unaffordable they are. The unions of course do fight for raises, which is their literal job. It is the elected officials' job to represent the interests of the county as a whole, but they are often way too beholden to the unions to fulfill this responsibility.[/quote]
