As written, the voters will not have any authority over decisions like those made by past City Councils to shortchange the pension system. |
Every dollar spent on these campaign promises, on these two ballot measures, is another dollar that could be spent on a true solution to some of the city's real problems, to the deficit, to the potholes, to park maintenance. |
None of those proposals are going to solve the problem, which is basically the city needs to fund the pension system, and it needs a big infusion of money to jump start it. |
To think you have to get to the pension board meetings early, it just goes to show what a circus the city has become. |
You can't put a price on loyalty to the city. You can't put a price on pride at work. . . . You can't put a price on the institutional knowledge that our workers have. |
