OT: Politicos grant "blue collar" workers like
Police, far too generous pensions and benes.
Even "white collar" jobs like teachers get
benes as if they're Executives, not clerks
or book keepers.

My hometown is going broke from all of these
generous pensions and benes.

It's crazy.

And, Politicos keep calling for more and more money
for teachers, but in the last 50 yrs. the results have
been worse with ever more and more money 'thrown'
at the problem. Money does NOT seem to be the
answer.

<<Pension and other employment benefits are earned compensation, not at all the same thing as program benefits. Folks in both sides often conflate them.>>

Particularly Romney, and now a footnote of the past.
