Yea Jimmy...and why don't we just eliminate your social security benefits too....been paying in for your whole career. I don't give a damn...
who pays in to a pension? Its funded by the government, aka, taxpayers, aka me and you. The time needs to come soon where the public employees need to have the same benfits as those that pay their salaries. Many firms in the public sector are eliminating 401k match, and other perks to save money. The state may need to do that to, is that such a radical idea?
And by the way, my social security has been eliminated.
