Re: PSERS- PA state retirement

Why? Private sector employees retirements are matched to some degree by their employeer and the costs are passed on the the consumer. So the consumer gets soaked more money to pay for your retirement. Its an endless cycle and its not like a State makes money to offset retirement costs. And the last time i checked state employees pay taxes too. So its not like we are exempt from the same costs. You really want to bitch, go check what prevailing wages are all about in states that require them for large construction projects. That sucks up more money then anything we are arguing about. Joe get might $18/hr on private construction work, but for our state Joe gets $27/hr just because he is there. And our wonderfull state sends L&I inspectors to the job sites to make sure the employees are getting the proper rates. Now that is rape of our wallets. Try working for a state entity and seeing how screwed up things are and wonder htf your taxes are wasted.

True, but I cannot legally hold a gun to a consumer's head and force them to pay me anything like the state can. If I want a consumer to pay me anything I have to provide them with something that is worth it to them. Logically speaking, I earn my future retirement benefits by providing my customers with something that is worth as much or more to them than what they are paying me.

I don't need to, I already know all too well. PennDot goofed up my vehicle record and accused me of driving without insurance and the West Chester Area School District accused me of not paying them taxes for the years I wasn't living there. In both cases I had to do their work for them and prove that I was legal. I already paid for them to do their job once but I ended up having to do their work for them for free. If I was really a consumer, I could have fired both agencies for being incompetent and costing me time, money and stress that I didn't need.
