[QUOTE="rod, post: 1484039, member: 5382"] I'm really not trying to get in a pissing match with you but your idea of washing your hands of the Central States problem and more or less saying "its their problem--let them deal with it' is a slap in the face to your Father and others who have known for years that the plan was in trouble but really had no say in it. All I'm saying is that I'm sick and tired of hearing about how Social Security is going broke and VA programs are being cut but no one ever talks about the screwed up welfare system. Why not cut some fat from that and take care of those who actually worked and paid into the system even if means bankrolling a failing private pension program whos members are rapidly dying off anyway. P.S. I can live with a substantial cut in my pension but I have friends who are going to be hurting when the cuts come. You will probably be taking care of them anyway because I'm sure they will eventually end up on the welfare rolls to some extent. [/QUOTE]
