There are FAR more folks on Social Security and private pensions / 401ks than there are public retirees.
So as the crushing debts come due, a majority of voters will logically vote to make the “adjustments” on the public side.
The government committed more money to the 10 million former public servants last year than the $690 billion it paid to 54 million Social Security beneficiaries.
I keep reading this....more money to 10 million government retirees, than 54 million on Social Security. So what are the government retirees costing us?
A trillion a year?
