There are tens of thousands of dot indian H1B's parents and grandparents collecting medicaid and tens of million of illegals using ER healthcare costing billions.

Bezos and his ilk are making tens of billons while healthcare rises throught the roof and then eventually collapses.

Americans are retards allowing the country to be destroyed while the robber barons of leftist tech become the richest humans in history.

Before it’s over we will all be paying cash for Doctors and medicine and insurance will be unaffordable.

It is unrealistic for private citizens to work till they die to pay for health care for public employees who retire  at 55 years or less age. Some only working for 20 years and then collecting a life pension and healthcare.

It cannot continue.

people who willingly gave up the responsibility for the care and feeding of their retirement benefits program are so upset that the people they gave the responsibility to screwed it up that they are suing them, thereby incurring more costs to the retirement benefits program?

There’s a path forward that makes money appear out of nowhere?  Every day of time taken admiring the problem is less money available when reality is accepted.

Nope. But that isn't the crux of the immediate issue however.

-The pre-medicare age retired guys now have a stipend to buy health insurance.
-The pension fund board decided this stipend HAS to be used through a single company, Aon or healthcare.gov.
-In many cases, Aon has NO relationships with healthcare providers in regions of Ohio.
-The money that IS available could easily be put to better use for the retired members elsewhere, but it has too many strings attached.

The company being forced upon the retired members is in... Chicago, the pension fund executive director is from... Chicago and used to manage the police pension fund there. I think people are right to be skeptical. The Ohio Police and Fire Pension operates under the purview of the Ohio State Legislature, but not as it relates to heath insurance. That is up to the members. Make sense?

I guess you can try talking to more anti-math people.  That's gotten their pension to around nine years of health funding left.

Sure. Plan well and save up. Don't expect to draw a pension longer than you work and expect the plan to remain solvent.

No Idea.  I don't work in that sector so I don't act like an expert on it.  Unlike some people here, on the vice versa.

Working 40 years in an office job is probably equivalent to working 2 years in a cruiser though!!

Well then, I guess you could force them to work longer, but then many of the ones you're having work longer will get hurt more often on the job and ultimately retire "early" with a medical retirement, which costs more than a standard retirement. Guess that the joke would be on you then.

Current year public service needs should be paid for with current year dollars and not cause a future unfunded requirement.

If Ohio had a system that met this basic standard then there wouldn't be a story.  But they don't have enough money so something has to give.

I suppose here we will see alot more police that age continuing to work so they don't lose their health insurance
