Ahaul, I had to laugh reading that you wrote down Huns. I just happen to be a direct descendant of Attila. 
  Pensions are not the cost of government. Pensions in the RAGWUS sector are a crooked scam placed upon hard working citizens to enrich the inside tallywackers of government goons, and nothing more.  :)]]></description>

Dumbky

Your vile rants are unkind. Pensions are cost of governance.  Guaranteed by taxpayers.

Without government you would be hunted down behind your rusty Sunset Beach  over mortgaged privledged abode and unkindly redistributed.

Use some judgement....if the Huns, Visigoths and Vandals come to your gates the Ragwinetti lead by Ragwanettus wil save your Denny&#039;s Groupon chits for you.]]></description>

Teddy, my little RAGWUS feeding parrot. It seems that political left leanings makes one lose the ability to understand math concepts. You fail to grasp the fact that the state alone owes over a trillion dollars to you feeders and the nation as whole owes 15 trillion bucks to you RAGWUS scum. The longer the nation waits to lower your take the faster the end for you thieves will come.  LOL  :)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Calpers value today  303 BILLION

Once again the initiative usual suspects have created yet ANOTHER unsustainable and unlawful initiative---- sad to see folks invest in it---- and--- of course there is zero actuarial assurance that if it &quot;was&quot; law--- it would save ANY money----  looks like taxpayers would be required to make up for the loss of member contributions!  LMAO]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The GASB reporting for 2015 will be interesting. I suspect there are some horror stories about underfunding, and others won the so bad. The change is overdue so local taxpayers have transparency on the issue. It will be helpful when a parcel tax, sales tax increase, school bond, are presented to the voters.]]></description>

It&#039;s amazing how they repeatedly use opinion pieces as &quot;proof&quot; of whatever they&#039;re trying to prove at the time.  Almost as good as when the authors cite previous CWD posts as their support.]]></description>
