A contract is a contract and should be honored. I pity those that lost their pensions through govt corruption. But it’s not the taxpayers’ problem.

I trust this guy was a good cop, and I regret his injuries. I hope he finds a good path.

While on the subject of injuries, let’s not forget about the troops the come home injured, and especially those that didn’t make it home alive.

Some people around here are hilarious. If they had a contract from their employer you can sure as sh-t bet that they'd demand it be honored or see the other party in court.

But the vitriol against unions is stronger, I guess. And yeah, if a wounded vet lost his benefits, they'd be screaming about that, too. FR can be a strange place.

When the money runs out, or is not worth what it once was, this is what happens. There will not be an answer that people will like. People with defined benefit pensions will lose and nobody is going to bail them out.
