Oh and topping off the pension funds of course. Of course the taxpayers most who do not have[b] lavish pensions[/] financed that .


What do you consider a lavish pension?


70% of what your original pay was or more. The fact is that they have pensions ajnd they were financed by the US taxpayer.


Damn, I wish...

I'll be retiring this spring with 34 years of actual service, 37 years when foundry time is added. My pre-tax pension from GM will be $2000. Social Security will bump that up to almost double. GM doesn't contribute to my 401 so that's on me. Now when you consider that I've grossed over 100k for approx half my years of employment at GM the 70% is a tad overestimated.
