Daily breaking news and news the liberal media doesn't want you to know, won't report, or just daily news issues.

Americans for many years have had to rely on left leaning biased news reporting from liberal media such as NBC, ABC, and CBS and the New York Times. As most of these outlets struggle to remain on the air and in print, the new media is flourishing and people are hearing both sides of the issues. This forum will provide people with a place to discuss daily news issues of any kind or discuss articles not printed or aired by the liberal news outlets.

Munster, do you even bother to read? who are the people that you claimed in your original statement that caused the problem? would that be the taxpayers????? i went back and read what you posted. never once did you mention the taxpayer or the state sanctioned bond managers. nope according to you it was the profiteering stockbrokers that hoodwinked those innocent and "stupid" pensioners. you have got to realize that just because government bows to the labor unions in exchange for their continued reign of fiscal terror does not mean they can continue to squeeze the taxpayers forever. at some point the funds will dry up and you are left with what Stockton has realized. if asked most people, when given the choice, would say they had rather eat with their money than fund the next pie-in-the-sky dream of a politician.

“Most aren't paid to do it, it’s part of their duties”

LOL . . . Union Representatives on Private & Public Employee Pension Boards work for FREE according to Munster . . . LOL

Question: Are you saying these highly compensated Union Representatives on Private or Public Employee Pension Boards are worthless because as you allege “they have no vote or are out numbered 5 or more to 1”?

Munster

Again wrongriki 's ignorance shows ! Most private pension boards may have a representative from the union but usually they have no vote or are out numbered 5 or more to 1 ! You do understand "NO VOTE " and "OUTNUMBERED " !

scrapile, the safest way to issue municipal bonds is through direct private investment with the bonds being backed by the governments ability to generate revenue to cover the maturity of the bond. it could be argued that the greed exhibited by CALPers caused the pension bonds to be caught with their pants down so to speak. munster was correct in that if you gamble, you have to be ready to lose....and lose they did.

will be at-risk throughout the process. Public safety represents 80%, or almost $160 million, of the city’s nearly $200 million annual budget.

munster...take a few moments to compare your reason verses the three primary reasons. there is a vast difference between the two. in addition look into CALpers and it's board members who oversee and managed the pension bonds. the city like many government entities do very well at expansion but somehow fully grasp when to contract. that is why labor and long-term contracts are devastating when the governments get in financial trouble. i will not bother to post this in duplicate since you seemed to be courteous enough not do it either.
