Glenn Beck: The truth about the present state of Pension Funds

and the deplorable role of Unions. I find Beck over the top at times, but this is not one of those times. Worth listening to, to gage how entire chunks of the USA and for that matter even Provinces here in Canada, can go underwater if we do not mend our ways. For example, a government employee in California, if he retires at the age of 50 and had put in 30 years of service, then he is entitled to get 90% of his last annual salary as pension benefits annually. The perfect dream of the Unionized nation of USA will give them the perfect downfall too, it's inevitable. Short-term thinking usually does that, time and time again.

  1. Did you notice Sarah Palin gathered a whopping 7% of the vote at CPAC to lead the Republicans in the next election? What happened to that "grassroots" revolution?

  2. Well, that's because she has been implying that she is not keen for the 2012 running. Did you notice that of late she has been rah, rah, rahhing for Ron Paul. Maybe, she is responsible for ROn Paul's success at the CPAC.

  3. It may also have something to do with the fact that her popularity is crashing in the polls nationally. She's had her moment of glory, and will still be useful to the GOP as a rallying point for its more - ah - primitive elements. But she'll not be a serious candidate again, more's the pity.
