Not so sure the cities *offer* these unsustainable pensions as much as the
unions demand them. Cities are stuck kicking the can down the road for some
other mayor to fix.

City problems are due to really incompetent people running them be they
Republican or Democrat. They've done stupid things like offer unsustainable
pension plans to attract new employees. I still think those were sold to them
because Wall Street wanted to gamble with that money. We've allowed these
people to run things because the public is generally apathetic and a lot of
city elections are confusing and corrupt.

Reagan didn't life all boats either and neither did the Bushes so it's not

Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is doing the
same thing over and over again and expecting different results.'
It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats....... Yet they are still
POOR.
- You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
- You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
- You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
- You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
- You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
- You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative
and independence.
- You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and
should do for themselves.
