Accept investment advice from a communist, and watch what happens.

In California, taxpayers have to pony up to make sure mismanaged public pension obligations are made good.

Do New Yorkers have to do the same?

That’s a real issue that isn’t mentioned with these stupid pronouncements; I remember some token black official years ago talking about using stockholder activism (including divestment from some company or other) to make a political point. He actually said, “When you control x million in pension funds, you don’t have to march in the street”.

Very creepy...

I think there's something the NYS constitution on public pensions.

No idea if it applies to local as well as the state.

Too true. That’s why Obamacare was really enacted. Our own Americans out of work or incapacitated and having to rely on welfare were already getting free medical. The gov’t had to make sure all the working class/middle class paid up additional monies to support the new continuous influx of non citizen welfare class, instead of stopping them pouring in. And most of them are illiterate, don’t speak English, and will be unable or unwilling to work forever. Pray for Paris, but throw in a few for America while you’re at it.
