I don't know where you live, but in NJ the legislature has consistently
allowed the state NOT to pay into the teachers' (police/whatever) pension
plans. *Now, gov christie says, OK, you teachers need to pay more, but
what of the unfunded state obligations? *It almost seems that the state
stealing from the pension plans is OK, and the pensioners better fend for

Well, things like pensions "changed" at companies while I was working
there and there was nothing I could do about it.
Health care insurance costs rose for me without notice and there was
nothing I could do about it.
My job was outsourced to a low-cost provider and there was nothing I
could do about.
Sorry, I just don't like hearing the whining.
