		<description>I enjoyed this article.  To the above comment I say 100k is an absurd pension for a government worker........no private sector jobs offer a pension at all.  

People need to manage their money, their lives, their investments........</description>

		<description>Even if we were able to get out of the contracts, do you think they&#039;d negotiate better the next time?

It seems there should be cap.  No matter what you did while on the job, $100k / year seems a pretty good pension.  We talk about the big numbers but really it&#039;s that *everyone* is getting 90% or whatever of their salary, right?  

Seems there should be a sliding scale.</description>
