Their Pensions Are Not Great

California teachers pay about 8% into their retirement system. Corporate workers pay less; many pay nothing.

In general teachers are not eligible for Social Security.


Few teachers receive medical benefits from their school districts.

Men

Men who have worked for a pension should not have to sue to get it.
Neither should the government have to sue for them.
Arrangements should be made so that they get their pension in all cases excepting the end of the Earth.
Why haven't men used their collective bargaining rights and their voting rights to do that?
They have used their skills on behalf of their employers and on their need to earn their daily bread.
Why haven't they used their citizenship skills to claim their rights?
Why haven't they used politics, laws, and organisation to claim their rights?
Are they waiting for their children to take up arms?
