If someone is paying for them, I guess they're not unfunded anymore.

I see no value to that comment.

I do not propose making any changes to the current situation. You're the one who wants to stir the pot. My complaint was that you were proposing to stir it in only one way.

Really? I didn't notice anywhere where I stated that I was proposing to stir it in only one way. What I did point out was there is no overall consistency in how unfunded liabilities are distributed other than it flows down to the consumer no matter how you do it. You were the one that suggested that if one business model does it than they should all do it.

Given the current and prospective political climates, I'd say that your proposal is dead in the water.

As I made no such proposal, you should consider the possibility that I disagree with you AND neolib. To disagree with one doesn't imply that agree with the other.
