Cash-Strapped States Pushing Back Retirement Ages For Workers

~




...This is what you can look forward to in your retirement years...






In response to the massive pension obligations owed to soon-to-retire baby boomers, at least 10 states have voted to push back the retirement age of their employees, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Those hoping to receive a full pension will have to work longer or pay a higher penalty for retiring early.





"So let's continue the Bush tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans so they can keep on eating caviar and drinking champagne and let's get the the tax short-fall money from middle class and poor Americans. Also, let's continue the expensive wars. That's the patriotic thing to do!"
