The Way We Live Now - The Public Pension Crisis - NYTimes.com
"Ever since theWall Street crash, there has been a bull market in Google hits for “public pensions” and “crisis.”
Horror stories abound, like the one in Yonkers, where policemen in their 40s are retiring on $100,000 pensions (more than their top salaries), or in California, where payments to Calpers, the biggest state pension fund, have soared while financing for higher education has been cut.
Then there is New York City, where annual pension contributions (up sixfold in a decade) would be enough to finance entire new police and fire departments."
It is coming to EVERY community in our country!
