[quote=Anonymous]Why are so many people posting about teachers’ pensions here? The question is about fed pensions. And the reality is that the standard GS pension is worse than the military pension, public teacher pensions, county and local government pensions, university pensions, and corporate pensions (yes there are several times more people enrolled in private company pension plans than in the federal plan). When someone asks about my generous pension, I tell them that in my STEM field the newly minted graduates are hired into nonprofit research institutes at about the same salary as I’m currently making in my fifties with 33 years of career experience. Without a decent pension and retirement health care I would have left decades ago. Plenty of us do. [/quote]
