Not only does your link not work, but you have a very misguided idea of how pensions work.

More detail please? Did something happen in your state to cause you to react, or has this just been on your mind and you couldn't take it anymore?

And we all know only certain people are allowed to post vanities without being tattled on to the Admin. Does this person not realize they are not in that group?

It is not just city workers.Just about all public employees,from municipalities to county workers and public education employees are on the very generous and poorly managed NYS retirement system which didn`t protect itself from the bubble burst.It is underfunded now to meet promised benefits that were given out in the 90s.Between this and Medicaid/child,family health plus just about every upstate county is close to bankrupt.

I agree. I have a big family and the only ones in it with a pension are the 4 or 5 employed by the Federal and State governments.
Something real wrong here.
To: RushCrush
Are you a city or state worker?
You must be, because you are very angry and very quick to support free money for losers!!

Something akin to public servants making out better than the public they serve. As far as NY though, with all the manufacturing base dissappearing those of us still living here get to pick up the ever increasing tab. This is the greatest state to live in as long as you don't work or work for the government.
