do medical experiments on welfare recipients

You know what happens to that government worker when they retire? They get welfare of around $5,000-6,000 per month for life. So it’s still better for everyone to keep that slob on welfare, instead. Strange that you are so pro big government while pretending to not be. It’s always the support big government RINOs that make the most noise on the internet. You are just a liberal democrat that happens to be against vaccines.

Rarely more then 5 grand a month and unlike welfare he worked for 25 years paying into the pension fund like social security ( which should be completely privatized) . BTW they always find away to increase welfare payments, most pensions except federal have little to no COLAS and the COLAs on fed pensions max at 3 % .

Sorry, then public pension system in America is the biggest welfare program on earth. And no they aren’t really “paying” into it.

I am a NYC retiree TRUST ME I paid into it an Average of about 3 and a half percent a year. Having said that I would agree with you if you said the entire pension system should be privatized.

If it were up to me the pension System and social security would look something like this

Every employee would be required to put around 5 to 10 % of income into an IRA like account about 25% would be required to go into state and federal Bonds, the proceeds of the Bonds would pay current retitirees the remaining 75% could go into any investment he or she chooses . When they reach 55 or so they can withdraw 7% per year until 85 at 85

It’s better than no plan, but I think 10% should be mandatory for everyone. And anyone crying that’s too much, well…..I lost my job more than anyone. I was unemployed for years at a time. Yet, unlike my pension dependent overpaid relatives, who never lost a job (even after letting children in their care die) — I’m the only one not in debt and the only one that didn’t lose my house. Because I’ve been saving more than 10% since I was a teenager. And never depended on anyone else for everything. The problem with pensions isn’t that they exist, it’s that they are supposed to only be available in jobs that pay half or less than half what the same job pays in the private sector. That was supposed to be there so people were compensated for a lower paying career. In 2021, the average job with a pension pays 3 times what that same job pays in the private sector. That means you need 3 people paying 100% tax to cover every one public worker. These are close to literal real numbers. It’s absolutely unsustainable, by simple math, before even getting to the pensions. Because in 2021 about 1/4 of the people employed are government workers. Without a massive increase in the private economy, the U.S. will collapse.

(Hit post comment by accident) At 85 the employee could withdraw up to10% a year when they die what ever is left is distributed to their estate.
