Your original rant spoke to grandfathering pensions and now you are talking about grandfathering people. And I went to the trouble of showing you that pensions are not secure for those that have them.

Entitlements? I thought we were talking about jobs.

Public service pension reform? Don't think many Freepers will disagree with that.

they’d rather crash the system, so long as they get theirs Okay, I'm going out on a limb here, and assue that the "they" you are referring to is people over 55. So you think someone over 55 should voluntarily give up their job, is that what you are saying?

I’m saying they should agree to public service pension reform rather then simply grandfathering out new hires as an ineffective stopgap.

Public sector pensions are just killing us right now - we could probably salvage the rest if the public sector were to pay 50 percent.
