Rather than trying to ripp the pensions from people who still have them, why not argue that this trend should be reversed in the private sector.

Can I ask you a serious question UCGal? Ok, cool…
What world do you live in?
In case you haven’t heard the news in your world, 99%ers are DESPERATE for work. Pensions AIN’T making a come back.
Back to the OP, even those modest proposals won’t pass. The only hope for justice with regard to these outrageous pensions/benefits/salaries is for Cali to go bankrupt – which is the best thing in the long run I do believe.
I heard a public employee union goon on the news asking: Well how will these workers be able to provide for themselves and family when they retire.
In a way that statement is propaganda to give the impression that the Brown proposals are not just window dressing but are real and deep cuts. On the other hand this tool also really is that out of touch.[/quote]
I find it ironic that you are the spokesperson for the very entities that have made the 99%ers so desperate for a job.
The only ones who were trying to save American jobs were the unions and their supporters. Oddly enough you don’t seem to grasp which entities are responisible for decimating our job base, as you constantly advocate on their behalf.
How did the 1% manage to convince so many in the 99% to work against their (and the country’s) own best interests?
