How you can begrudge me my well earned pension after working 35 years? That really upsets me. 35 years of teaching B.S. degree,Masters degree,6th year degree all paid for by me to become a better teacher. Why are you so jealous of my pension? I earned it!

You did NOT contribute to Social Security and I did...BUT Social Security is handled just a bit differently !
Is that correct ? You talk as if you did something special...you did contribute to YOUR pension plan...lucky you....I contributed to Social Security and you did not !
That is one question, ie. you didnt contribute to Social Security ? Second one is..you talk as if NO public funds were used for your pension...is that what you are saying ?
