Jim Wagner and Molly Janczyk re: Decisions!

Subject: RE: Decisions!
Times have changed. All businesses and pension systems need to reflect the current downturn with sensitivity and cutbacks in operations. The BIG 3 auto companies have been forced to accept this and so should every type of employer along with their employees. To do otherwise shows harsh distinction and greed to shareholders hurting, trying to find employment, struggling to survive. It matters not what business practices are during opulent past inflated times.

Molly, Donna's comments [Donna Seaman to Nehf and Board: Decisions!, posted 12/7/08] reflect my opinion exactly. I am just old enough to remember the BIG DEPRESSION. There are many differences: one is the large number of us who are retired. Every step that we take to endanger that stability takes us one step closer to a Big One. We are already headed in that direction. We must STOP until we can get turned around.
