Fair and balanced: COLA to be issued for 2012

Fair: The Cost of Living Adjustment will be issued for 2012.

Balanced: It's otherwise known as panem et circenses and is a joke that doesn't cover actual price increases.

From Juvenal:

D. IVNI IVVENALIS SATVRA X

iam pridem, ex quo suffragia nulli
uendimus, effudit curas; nam qui dabat olim
imperium, fasces, legiones, omnia, nunc se
continet atque duas tantum res anxius optat,
panem et circenses.

SPQR
