Truth about "The Pension Crisis".

6. Thank you. David Cay Johnston is a national treasure.

I am one of those whose pension (defined benefit) is literally a third of what it should be, thanks to the company I worked for declaring bankruptcy more than once and dumping our pensions on the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. I'm lucky in that I never thought my pension from this company would amount to much, since I worked for them (for ten years) a very long time ago, but those who worked their entire lives there and then were massively screwed over -- well there are no words to adequately describe the injustice.
