I appeared in an Altoona Mirror story about the pension funding issue today. Unfortunately, the story just focused on the school pension program. I immediately got an email from a teacher who said that if I am proposing changing their system, I should change it for state employees and the legislature. As any regular Eichelblog reader knows, the plan changes would effect both major plans, in fact, I would like to see this change made to all municipal plans as well. I did email the teacher back with my position and hopefully, all is well with the world. I hope.
