No one relishes the idea of a public servent seeing benefits cut when it's too late in their careers to adjust for that. That being said, I don't see an alternative. Nor do I buy that the union meployees are completely innocent in this, because for dsecades, they have demonized politicians who spoke the truth, and elected politicians based on the promise that the impossible benefits wouled continue. These people have been warned for 35 years that this was coming, but trhey didn't want to hear it.
