The Iowa Coalition for Retirement Security was formed to ensure Iowans can retire with dignity. Recently, the coalition claims, retirement security for over 350,000 Iowans has come under serious threat. Politicians and out-of-state special interest groups have made clear their intention to change vital retirement systems like IPERS. More information is available at iaretirement.org.
Why do you think 97.5 % of them vote demorat – Welfare and freebies that the private citizen has to cough up . Socialism !
BS ! Taxpayers contribute to IPERS – that is why Iowa IOWA is 5 BILLION dollars in debt – taxpayers contribute while the lacky is working and draw 80% of their last working check when they retire we are paying DEARLY for their public retirement lifestyle – Don’t give us that Obama BS that your self supporting.
Here we go again. yur not paying their retirement ,they do. If you would have been a little smarter you too could have had a “government” job, sorry you didn’t make the cut.
That’s a big BULLS–T that they’re paying for their own retirement. Remember when you-know-who tried to blow that by the readers. This post has the air of superiority prevalent in most LIB posts. In reality the only air they have is the hot air they blow.
Public employees at the trough and still looking for more. I sure wish I would have found a public employee job. Great pay, can’t get fired, and better retirement than the people that pay their wages and retirement.
To top it off you could be horrible at your job, and still be paid. How much do they actually work?
Most government employees are a joke for what they get paid. It takes 10 of them to do the job that two private employees would do.
That means 25 of people like you could do their job if you had someone looking over your shoulder. Flipping fries isn’t that hard, is it?
