When you say Gov't employee you are talking about 2 different groups, one is politicians who can retire after 6 years and the other are normal working stiffs who contributed 5% of their pay for 35 years in order to qualify for a full pension. As one of the latter I can attest to the fact that for the first ten years I worked for a wage below that paid to the private sector in exchange for better job security. People in my situation certainly didn't become rich (unless they had an inheritance).

That's interesting, coming from an admitted liar.I took less when I moved to the public sector just so I could be around while my kids grew up. The two youngest graduate next June. I've already got my feelers out looking for something in the private sector....much better remuneration and nowhere near the headaches. Things may be like Taxslave says in Lalaland but that's a goofy place.
I can see why you would want to take that route. You seem to be made uncomfortable about your own words.lolz
You have to love how the guy that cries about personalizations, peppers almost every post with derogatory personalizations.
Oh man, you can't even make this stuff up, lolz
I totally agree with you that extending discounts to seniors carte blanche is a thing that is now obsolete. I also pointed out some years ago on this forum that seniors born post depression are a different bunch than those born pre depression. I, myself do not need these discounts to get by but like everything else it's natural to take what you can get. I just pass it forward by doing stuff like contributing to the food bank at Xmas and other times.
You could opt to ignore those who wish to turn a discussion into an argument. But that's your call.As I've said, S.L.M. I'm in agreement with most of what you've said if not all, what I am in disagreement with is some raving lunatic hi jacking your thread by attacking an entire generation and characterizing them as selfish, greedy people. I know I lose patience quite quickly with people like Cannuck, when I should just laugh at them realizing they really for their own protection should be in an institution. I know some pretty fit "young" seniors who would take his head off in a Hollywood minute. -![]()
Yes you can, but you have to be able to back it up.YA DON'T BAD MOUTH AN ENTIRE DEMOGRAPHIC.
If that's not the case, perhaps you'd be willing to explain how realty trends don't impact property values and tax.lolz
lolz
All you had to do was say you don't understand. You've already admitted you don't anyways.Lolz
Yes, I already get it, you want to avoid the hard questions.Lolz
Lolz
That has what to do with your single mom living in a $2million home collecting welfare, which has what to do with greedy seniors, while you ignore realty affects on property taxes and values, exactly?

Interesting that you haven't answer any of ours.Lolz
Interesting that nobody has answered the question
