But here they are making the employees contribute 3%, which is what my district was contrbuting to the pension fund. In addition to health insurance going up every year, and no raise for the last 4.

I will get a COLA at the end of this month, about $20. Woohoo. Then my health insurance will go up in Jan, more than that $20. I'm still in the hole.

My question to "those that be" now is, where is that collective 3% going? My district is still crying poor. I truly hope they are hanging on to it, because I have a feeling they are going to have to pay it when King Ricky looses his lawsuit.

I had some fool tell me his company didn't pay the 6.25% SS tax for him. Some people just don't have a clue, but they are the ones who scream the loudest.
