Reply #154: yes, remember the public pension plan

[newspeak]

in Florida losing money because of investments in Enron? Then, in Ohio Ney allegedly invested in "coins" (at least that's where they said the money went). I think they were investigating to see if they were flowing pension money into Repug coffers. I'd say they've been bamboozling the American public for quite some time. As we keep shoveling our money into pensions and social security that's supposed to allow us some comfort in our so-called golden years, they've been shoveling out just as fast.

The S&L debacle (one of the greatest heists), Enron, Madoff, lucrative war profiteering, billions unaccounted for in Iraq, bank bailouts--it appears they've been spending like a drunken sailor, and now WE the people are told we must sacrifice. Haven't WE sacrificed enough--go ask those greedy MF'ers who have sent our jobs offshore to exploit slave labor or Wall Street greedheads who have GAMBLED to make a buck on our misery--go ASK THEM TO SACRIFICE!!!!
