        Just keep in mind that higher risk funds decimated retirement accounts in states across the country. Be careful.

        No, it was state legislatures that shirked their contribution obligations, causing pension funds to incur more risk to make it up.

        I think that is charitable. Though I concede govt can skim, the markets were also gangbusters, and greed attracted fund managers.

        Those in control, don't care about retired teachers. HOW did you learn to read, write and do math? From US is the answer.

        Since you think it's a good idea and this is #texas, I have to ask; which insurance company will make the most money off this?

        Yet retired teachers are going to be the ones hurt. Now I worry about whether I will be able to afford my medications after September

        Your going to need that money to cover preexisting conditions since DC is about to pass that cost on to the states.

        Why is the State holding taxpayer money in the bank? That is crazy. Nothing conservative about holding my money in your bank.
