My point is that pensions shouldn't have a guaranteed return on
contribution.


Absolutely they should not. Regular workers don't get guaranteed returns on their retirement savings, why should government workers receive them? The idea that our current state and local taxes go to pay for retirees rather than schools and workers is appalling.

If a pension fund can't meet it's obligations, the obligations should be reduced.
