[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 4829612, member: 17867"] So, believe me, I want every Teamster who was promised pension benefits to have those promises fulfilled, after all I’m in that group too. But why is it the taxpayers are on the hook for the pension benefits? Drivers in, for example, Central States didn’t drive for the US Govt they drove for UPS, and UPS reaped plenty of profits over the decades over the decades. I just did our taxes. My sweetie and I are both FT drivers. All in, with income tax, SS and Medicaid taxes we paid little bit more than a quarter of our income direct to DC. And that’s before the “Trillion Dollar Spending Plan of he Week” show the Dems are putting on. Guessing it’ll gonna be one dollar in every three all too soon. At this rate pensions may be moot point I’ll need to keep working till I drop just to pay taxes. [/QUOTE]
