NO! NO! NO! The taxpayer DOES NOT PICK UP THE TAB FOR GOVERNMENT INSURANCE (PBGC) antigop Jul 2012 #67
wel, all and all, the consumer is still paying for it in added costs to their insurance premiums blm Jul 2012 #72
once again, the PBGC IS NOT FUNDED BY TAXPAYERS. It's on the PBGC website. n/t antigop Jul 2012 #78
the companies with defined benefit pension plans pay the premiums to the PBGC. antigop Jul 2012 #79
