> Yeah, paying out agreed upon pensions is nothing but a democratic fault...I might buy that one with some citation

You need a citation to tell you the unions are bedmates with the Democtrates? Really? When was the last time you saw a union rally for a Republican? If you are denying that association, then you're just not willing to have an honest discussion about politics.

Allowing someone to retire after 20 years of service, and then collect a pension for 30 or 40 more years is unsustainable... compounded by double-dippers. It is literally crushing those states that were foolish enough to swell their government employement rates and pension benefits too high, just like it crushed the auto companies. Big government = big bills, it's a pyramid/ponzie scheme that will have to be contended with to save the failing states. It won't be a popular discussion, but it's one that will have to be had.
