    Ticking time bomb is right. This generational wealth transfer needs to stop.

    Shazam! Who knoew? Of course, the article title implies there are private pensions. Wrong.

    The pension system in this state for school employees is a crime.

    IN 2001 I got a 25 percent jackup in my pension for a 20 percent increase in my contribution.

    Guess who picks up the tab for all the rest????????

    The taxpayers must demand a rollback in pension benefits immediately.

    The system is stacked against the taxpayer. As long as judges have pensions, no others' pensions may be reduced. As the value of real estate continues to drop, largely because buying real estate makes you a slave of the teacher's pension fund, the problem will get worse.

    Democracy strangles itself.
