Jim,
It surely isn't a path to wealth. I did not mean to insult. Merely to point out that the deals these workers get are long term contractual agreements. I will not defend those who made them because, like you, I think they were shortsighted acts to merely gain votes. I do, however, feel we need to honor those agreements and find a go-forward approach. If that means negotiating a 401K buy-out then I am all for it. My name should give some indication that I line in the People's Republic of Maryland where we are beset with high taxes as well. My tax bill is slightly worse than your stated amount. Like you, I don't want to see it go up any more than it has to.
Bill
