“They arent expecting us to make up for their poor investments, right?”
You know the problem is not related to the pension plan performance, the assumed rate of return, pension spiking practices, and general market conditions. The problem is solely due to the cheap taxpayers who want government retirees to live in squalid conditions. These cheap taxpayers underfunded our meager pensions for decades. We earned these pensions. Taxpayers and conservatives are trying to steal the birthright of government employees.
Birthright? Oh I see, sarcasm. Well played.
