How about this?

RETIREMENT: Just like everyone else, you put as much into your retirement plan as you choose (with a modest employer match). Whatever you can accumulate over the course of your career, is yours to keep. No more, no less. And everyone takes part in social security. That's how it works for the entire private sector. What could be more fair? But if you suggest that, MSNBC says you're declaring war on the middle class or some such nonesense.

HEALTHCARE: If the entire private scetor pays 30% of the cost of their plans, then you can too. What could be more fair?

Try making that wrong.
Great but you didn't answer my question. What would bea fair way to make these people whole, cause it is not fair for them to start with zero. I am not a public employee, and my health care is paid 100%. I am a blue collar worker.

As far as health care you are wrong there are still corporations out there that cover 100% of employee health care, and many that have employees paying less than 30%. You need to stop using broad strokes with your approach.

Bent Rods and Screaming Reels!
