depending on the slaries that should increase. The PC living allowance salary needs to be studied as it is not equal to those in country; the in country stipend raise is usually done based on economics and not a salary study. For example, a teacher or trainer in country may be making that $22,500, but it is not studied and documented for a real assessment.
The re-settlement salary increase is needed, but Congress and Obama have been saying double foreign aid for two years now and it's since tripled or quadrupled, depending on how you add it up. 'Doubling' PC employees pay in poverty and keeping them there makes no sense. The excuses for paying federal workers below poverty and keeping them there can be seen by increasing the re-settlement salary to something reasonable to their value, like that $22,500 that they receive when they get home. No in country money worries.
PC Corps is one of the most wasteful programs in the US government
